Building on top of the previous patches, this allows you to say:

	$ git, please nicely ls-files

to get a paginated output of ls-files.

When 'talking' to a computer I would rather prefer to type as less as possible, but I understand it's a personal taste.

I once worked with someone whose PS1 was set to:

	PS1='and now I shall '

It was quite humerous to read the screenbuffer from a terminal:

   and now I shall make world
   ...
   and now I shall make clean
   ...
   and now I shall telnet remotesystem
   ...
   and now I shall kill 1899
