Subject: Believe it or not, but "more" on Windows requires "more <file" rather
X-Git-Tag: v2.1b1~34
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b616e114f7466d7064513c47246718064f16b250;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

Believe it or not, but "more" on Windows requires "more <file" rather
than "more file".  Since tempfilepager() is only used on Windows, it
seems, do this unconditionally -- on Unix, it always invokes something
else.
