Usage Guidelines

The pager lines command allows you to specify the number of lines in a page before the More prompt appears. The pager command enables display paging, and no pager disables paging and lets output display completely without interruption. If you set pager lines to some value and want to revert back to the default, enter the pager command without options. The clear pager command resets the number of lines in a page to 24.

Use pager 0 to disable paging.

The show pager command displays pager status.

When paging is enabled, the following prompt appears:

<--- More --->

The More prompt uses syntax similar to the UNIX more command:

• To view another screenful, press the Space bar.
• To view the next line, press the Enter key.
• To return to the command line, press the q key.
