Any command can be used as a pager.  Some commands are less useful than
others, though :)

PAGER set to 'cat -n'
mysql> select "hello";
     1  +-------+
     2  | hello |
     3  +-------+
     4  | hello |
     5  +-------+
1 row in set (0.01 sec)

mysql> pager date
PAGER set to 'date'
mysql> select "hello";

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql>
