No ChangeLog? The idea is good. I agree with your patch, basically. I can review it more seriously, once you write up ChangeLog entries. BTW, I would like to obtain the capability of handling pipes, so that we can, say, "help | more". I guess you have the same idea in your mind. This should be trivial, once the input and output are separate, right?
