New submission from Simon Michael <simon at joyful.com>:

darcs help environment says:

  DARCS_PAGER and PAGER:
    Darcs will sometimes invoke a pager if it deems output to be too  
long
    to fit onscreen.  Darcs will use the pager specified by $DARCS_PAGER
    or $PAGER.  If neither are set, `less' will be used.

"sometimes" is vague, it would be better to be more explicit here

Also, I expected "darcs changes" to react to these vars but it didn't.
