PAGESIZE Command
PAGESIZE Command
The PAGESIZE command designates the size of a printed page or of a display page
on the terminal screen. When a page of data has been displayed on a terminal, SCF
stops at the end of the page and asks whether the display should be continued or
stopped. The prompt is More text? ([Y], N). Responding Y, or pressing the Return key,
continues the display. This permits the operator to read each screen.
integer
specifies the size of the printer or terminal page. If integer is in the range 2
through 255, SCF displays integer-1 lines before providing a page break. If
integer is omitted or has the value -1, SCF does not provide a page break. The
default page size is 60 lines for a printer and 23 lines for a terminal.
TERMINAL
specifies that the terminal page size is being designated. This is the default value.
PRINTER
specifies that the printer page size is being designated.
Considerations
•
Responding N to the More text? ([Y], N) prompt causes command execution to
stop as well as the text display.
•
If you do not want to be prompted and you want the command to continue
execution, enter the PAGESIZE command with no integer value, or use -1 as the
value.
Examples
•
The following command establishes a printed-page size of 20 lines on a terminal
screen. A page break message is displayed following the nineteenth line:
-> PAGESIZE 20
•
The following command establishes an infinite page size on a terminal screen—
SCF does not provide a page break or message:
-> PAGESIZE
