1 The problem
=============
Most of the times, I use shell-mode in Emacs and execute "guix"
commands. When I execute "guix search", the following warning is shown
,----
| guix search emacs
`----
,----
| WARNING: terminal is not functional
| Press RETURN to continue
`----
I think the reason why this happens is that the command tries to use a
pager which is not possible in shell-mode.
I need to press C-c C-c to exit the command which is time-consuming
and doesn't allow me to normally search a buffer as I would normally
do it in Emacs.
I'd rather guix did not use a pager and instead show all the results
in raw text since that way I can scroll up and search within Emacs.
2 The question
==============
How could I disable the pager in "guix search" and make it display the
output in raw text?
