Does bash contain a pause feature other than control-z?
When I type 'help' the screen scrolls past and control-z doesn't stop the
top few lines from scrolling away before I can read them. with dos I'd
just type 'dir /p' or type '<filename> |more'
Are there equivalent set of commands for bash?
Thanks!
