Description (last modified by korpse) (diff)

Some commands output a lot of text, sometimes you want to see all the text (consider topic list) and sometimes it would be useful if the output were paged (consider dict define).

One possible solution is to introduce a longreply method on IRCSource that would be given an iterable of output units; these would be outputted as best they can (without cutting any off) and any overflow would then be paginated.

Refs: #8, #9.
