help in cli
« on: June 02, 2008, 03:17:01 PM »
Pretty simple question, but I don't know the answer...
how do you make a page stop scrolling after it's filled up? or how do you scroll up in the command line when you do a command like ls --help and there's too much information to be displayed in one screen?

    Thanks, I figured out what I needed. Shift+PgUp/PgDown lets you scroll up/down through previous screens.
