Supposedly, Windows has "more"
[http://superuser.com/questions/426226/less-or-more-in-windows],

For Linux+less; this works:

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
less = Popen("less", stdin=PIPE)
less.stdin.write(b"\n".join("This is line number
{}".format(i).encode("UTF-8") for i in range(1000)))
less.wait()
