[PATCH v3 1/1] Add paging instructions to normal and help prompts


From: Robbie Harwood
Subject: [PATCH v3 1/1] Add paging instructions to normal and help prompts
Date: Fri, 4 Nov 2022 13:05:37 -0400

This is not an ideal solution, as interactive users must always ru na
command in order to get the behavior they want, but it avoids
problematic interactions between prompting and sourcing files.
