When command output continues beyond the available space on your monitor screen, the system displays the --More-- prompt. If you press Enter, the system displays the next line of output. If you press the Spacebar, the system displays the next screen of output.
You can begin filtering the output from the --More-- prompt, or change a filter that is already in effect, by entering one of the following characters and a text string:
Initial spaces are not ignored when you filter at the --More-- prompt.
Example 1
In the following example, the output is displayed until the screen is filled and the --More-- prompt appears. By entering the filter /interf, the user forces the system to filter out all output lines until the first occurrence of the string interf. The system displays that line and all following lines of the output.
