Or use the industry standard *grin* : pipe through $PAGER, defaulting to the "more" binary in your path. (Windows?) And perhaps a separate variable DARCS_PAGER_LINES to specify the cut-off X: if the patch is less than X lines, don't call $PAGER. I think the git people have had a similar discussion on their mailing list a long time ago; search the git mailing list.
