Not sure what do you mean by 'broken', - i didn't hear any complaints on pipe
yet,
can you elaborate?
If I try a command in the shell such as:
for i in `seq 1 10`; do
echo "show vm myvm-$i" | ovirt-shell -c
done
the pager is invoked for each iteration and I must press 'q' for each iteration
of the loop to continue.
btw is it possible that your ovirt-shell is outdated?, take the
latest from pypi.
It's possible. I am using the Fedora package
(ovirt-engine-cli-3.2.0.5-1.fc17.noarch).

cli:autopage is deprecated, therefore ovirt-shell overriding old configuration
file with new format, you can disable pagination by 'no_paging = True' in
.ovirtshellrc
Ok, thanks. Is there any documentation on the allowed options in the
.ovirtshellrc file?
