MORE(1) User Commands MORE(1)
NAME
more - display the contents of a file in a terminal
SYNOPSIS
more [options] file ...
DESCRIPTION
more is a filter for paging through text one screenful at a time. This
version is especially primitive. Users should realize that less(1)
provides more(1) emulation plus extensive enhancements.
OPTIONS
Options are also taken from the environment variable MORE (make sure to
precede them with a dash (-)) but command-line options will override
those.
-d, --silent
Prompt with "[Press space to continue, 'q' to quit.]", and display
"[Press 'h' for instructions.]" instead of ringing the bell when an
illegal key is pressed.
-l, --logical
Do not pause after any line containing a ^L (form feed).
-e, --exit-on-eof
Exit on End-Of-File, enabled by default if POSIXLY_CORRECT
environment variable is not set or if not executed on terminal.
-f, --no-pause
Count logical lines, rather than screen lines (i.e., long lines are
not folded).
-p, --print-over
Do not scroll. Instead, clear the whole screen and then display the
text. Notice that this option is switched on automatically if the
executable is named page.
-c, --clean-print
Do not scroll. Instead, paint each screen from the top, clearing
the remainder of each line as it is displayed.
-s, --squeeze
Squeeze multiple blank lines into one.
-u, --plain
Suppress underlining. This option is silently ignored as backwards
compatibility.
-n, --lines number
Specify the number of lines per screenful. The number argument is a
positive decimal integer. The --lines option shall override any
values obtained from any other source, such as number of lines
reported by terminal.
-number
A numeric option means the same as --lines option argument.
+number
Start displaying each file at line number.
+/string
The string to be searched in each file before starting to display
it.
-h, --help
Display help text and exit.
-V, --version
Print version and exit.
COMMANDS
Interactive commands for more are based on vi(1). Some commands may be
preceded by a decimal number, called k in the descriptions below. In
the following descriptions, ^X means control-X.
h or ?
Help; display a summary of these commands. If you forget all other
commands, remember this one.
SPACE

z
Display next k lines of text. Defaults to current screen size.
Argument becomes new default.
RETURN

default.
d or ^D
Scroll k lines. Default is current scroll size, initially 11.
Argument becomes new default.
q or Q or INTERRUPT

s
Skip forward k lines of text. Defaults to 1.

Go to kth next file. Defaults to 1.
:p
Go to kth previous file. Defaults to 1.

ENVIRONMENT
The more command respects the following environment variables, if they
exist:
MORE
This variable may be set with favored options to more.
SHELL
Current shell in use (normally set by the shell at login time).
TERM
The terminal type used by more to get the terminal characteristics
necessary to manipulate the screen.
VISUAL
The editor the user prefers. Invoked when command key v is pressed.
EDITOR
The editor of choice when VISUAL is not specified.
POSIXLY_CORRECT

HISTORY
The more command appeared in 3.0BSD. This man page documents more
version 5.19 (Berkeley 6/29/88), which is currently in use in the Linux
community. Documentation was produced using several other versions of
the man page, and extensive inspection of the source code.
