This one is pretty non-intrusive indeed. The only inconvenience is that
it is limited to SSH. One might use M-x ess-remote on the local R
process running in *shell* buffer (I do). And it will work fine.
On windows options(pager="console") works fine in terminal R session. In
principle, on windows, we need not set it at all, it just works as
expected.
Currently, when cranking a subprocess, we are setting pager environment
variable to "cat". Thus, pager="cat" option directly in R (conditional
on saneOS) would not harm much, if at all.
