1 loc!
awk 'NR%22==0 { getline _ <"/dev/tty" } {print}'

You do your paging with 1 loc and yet you send email with something as bloated
as Emacs!

Actually, it isn't 1 LOC, awk is more than that ^^

Great! And stali has awk. It works pretty well, but doesn't take into
account long lines.

> Actually, it isn't 1 LOC, awk is more than that ^^ It's a stupid joke, as you probably know awk is a good abstraction that is perfectly fine to use. You also don't understand the complexity on the lower levels (for example firmware, microcode), but you are happy nonetheless even though many lines of code to count have been hidden from you. There are also hardware complexities that are not directly expressed in code at all.
