meow like a cat, this should not break anything and would save an
extra pipe.

402461aab1 pager: do not fork a pager if PAGER is set to empty.
This skips an extra pipe, and helps debugging tremendously.

[jc: PAGER=cat is a questionable hack and should be done as a separate

This introduces the new function
