From 01b19455c08cc37d1c3ef174524278e84c92fec1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Namhyung Kim Date: Sun, 25 Oct 2015 00:49:26 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Setup pager when printing usage and help It's annoying to see error or help message when command has many options like in perf record, report or top. So setup pager when print parser error or help message - it should be OK since no UI is enabled at the parsing time. The usage_with_options() already disables it by calling exit_browser() anyway.
