+## [0.9.119-b.1] - 2026-01-05
+
+### Added
+
+Support for using [a pager like `less`](https://nexte.st/docs/user-config/pager/) with nextest's output. Currently supported are:
+
+- `cargo nextest list`
+- `cargo nextest show-config test-groups`
+- `-h` and `--help` commands
+
+The pager support is closely modeled after the [Jujutsu version control system](https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj). The default pager is `less -FRX` on Unix platforms, and a builtin pager (based on [sapling-streampager](https://docs.rs/sapling-streampager)) on Windows.
