Controlling the Command Window Display 

Command and program output is displayed one screen at a time in the
command window.  You can use the terminal keys PgUp, PgDn, Home, End and
the CTRLarrow keys (or the equivalent scroll keys on your terminal) to
scroll the command window.  When you enter a command that requires more
than the number of lines in the command window to display, the debugger
displays enough lines to fill the command window then displays --More--at
the bottom.

Use one of the following commands to continue.

SPACE BAR             Displays one more window-full.

RETURN                Displays one more line.

q                     Quits scrolling and ignores the rest of the output
                      until another debugger prompt is issued.

To view command window output in a continuous stream, use the sm (suspend 
more) command to suspend the more feature.  CNTLS may be used to
temporarily suspend scrolling when the more feature is suspended.  Use
CNTLQ to continue scrolling.

To return to single-window output, enter the am (activate more) command.


NOTE Output from the child process (program being debugged) also appears in the command window, but it is not controlled by the more feature.
