Can pagination be disabled on the Bird console?

[Cybertinus]

Hello Adrian,

I don't have an answer to your questions, but might I suggest a whole 
different approach to your script? If you install Birdwatcher [1] then 
you put all the heavy lifting to parsing the birdc output to 
Birdwatcher. All you have to do is talk to a JSON API in your Python 
code. I think this makes your life a lot easier. I've used Birdwatcher 
in combination with PHP scripting and it works great!

So, not an answer to your question, but I do hope that my e-mail is 
still useful for you.

Kind regards,
Cybertinus
