+## Customization
+
+### Pager
+
+To specify a custom pager, use the `PAGER` environment variable.
+
+If the variable is not set, STACKIT CLI uses the `less` as default pager.
+
+When using `less` as a pager, STACKIT CLI will automatically pass following options
+- -F, --quit-if-one-screen - Less will automatically exit if the entire file can be displayed on the first screen.
+- -S, --chop-long-lines - Lines longer than the screen width will be chopped rather than being folded.
+- -w, --hilite-unread - Temporarily highlights the first "new" line after a forward movement of a full page.
+- -R, --RAW-CONTROL-CHARS - ANSI color and style sequences will be interpreted.
+
+> These options will not be added automatically if a custom pager is defined.
+> 
+> In that case, users can define the parameters by using the specific environment variable required by the `PAGER` (if supported).
+
+> 
+> For example, if user sets the `PAGER` environment variable to `less` and would like to pass some arguments, `LESS` environment variable must be used as following:
+
+> 
+> export PAGER="less"
+> 
+> export LESS="-R"
+
+
 ## Autocompletion
 
 If you wish to set up command autocompletion in your shell for the STACKIT CLI, please refer to our [autocompletion guide](./AUTOCOMPLETION.md).
