Re: [PATCH v3 3/4] pager: introduce wait_for_pager

> Since f67b45f862 (Introduce trivial new pager.c helper infrastructure,
> 2006-02-28) we have the machinery to send our output to a pager.
> 
> That machinery, once set up, does not allow us to regain the original
> stdio streams.
> 
> In the interactive commands (i.e.: add -p) we want to use the pager for
> some output, while maintaining the interaction with the user.
> 
> Modify the pager machinery so that we can use setup_pager and, once
> we've finished sending the desired output for the pager, wait for the
> pager termination using a new function wait_for_pager.   Make this
> function reset the pager machinery before returning.
