"more" Processing

When the CLI displays output, it sends data through a simple internal more-like process. This process prevents data from scrolling off the screen before it can be viewed. After you see the MORE prompt, you must press Enter to continue with the next screen of data. If you type q (followed by a Enter), any remaining buffered output is discarded.

You can control the number of lines displayed between prompts by setting the LINES_PER_SCREEN state variable. (See dset for more information.)
