Reading a File
The more command displays a file one screen at a time.
Syntax:
more
[
file...]
where file is the name of the file to be displayed.
The more command is similar to that used in the MS-DOS and UNIX operating
systems. It is useful for displaying output that scrolls too quickly to be viewed.
For example, when you power up the system, the system startup messages
scroll, and the messages are logged to an event log
When the >>> prompt displays, you can use the more command to display the
contents of the event log file.
Example 2–22 More Command

>>> help * | more
# Display online help one screen at a time.
