Comment 3 for bug 611141

I checked and the man command is the one that adds the status line with the help message (press h for help and q to quit).
So no the pager is no solution, also the machines where I made the tests, the less command does not show the help tooltip :(

I propose adding a status bar at the bottom (maybe above the buttons), where the tooltip is showed, and also we could use it to show more messages (config saved, command added, could not read config file - check for permissions, etc.).
