Not really a standard, but man page for man on my OSX laptop says:
"""
-P pager
Specify which pager to use. This option overrides the
MANPAGER environment variable, which in turn overrides the PAGER
variable.
"""
POSIX only mandates PAGER. See
<http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xcu/man.html>.
As I said before, since pydoc is not man, if we want a pydoc-specific
variable to override PAGER, it should be callled PYDOCPAGER.
