POSIX requires 'pr -p' to support paging (although it incorrectly stated
that it waits for \r, and is being fixed to wait for \n instead):
https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1433
During discussion of the behavior of -p today, the Austin Group was
surprised that coreutils' pr lacks -p altogether.

Given that hardly anybody uses pr any more, I'm surprised that the
Austin Group still cares about its options. It's an obsolete utility,
and ought to be deprecated.
