Subject: perf tools: Add cat as fallback pager
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=21cfc5e10395eba795c0610cf3cf7f0a4f6f33ff;p=linux-beck.git

perf tools: Add cat as fallback pager

This patch adds a fallback to cat for the pager. This is useful
on environments, such as Android, where less does not exist.
It is better to default to cat than to abort.
