number

Specifies the number of rows (lines) of output that can be displayed at one time for the display (output) terminal. number must be 0 or an integer from 5 through 512, where the special value 0 implies an infinite number of rows.


Usage:

Set the current session’s display terminal has different display characteristics than the defaults. The special infinite value (0) is typically used when logging the output of a session from a remote machine since this will result in no pagination of output.


Example:

The following commands set the length of the display to infinite and 33, respectively.

length 0
length 33
