Pausing Between Screens Of Output; Numbering Each Output Line From A Display Command - HP 12500 Configuration Manual

Pausing between screens of output

If the output being displayed is more than will fit on one screen, the system automatically pauses after
displaying a screen. You can use the keys described in
information or stop the display.
By default, up to 24 lines can be displayed on a screen. You can change the maximum number of lines
that can be displayed on a screen by using the screen-length screen-length command. For more
information about this command, see Fundamentals Command Reference.
You can also disable pausing between screens of output for the current session. Then, all output is
displayed at one time and the screen is refreshed continuously until the last screen is displayed.
