more

more is a filter that displays text to the terminal a screenful at a time, pauses after each screenful, and prints --More-- at the bottom of the screen. more provides a two-line overlap between screens for continuity. If more is reading from a file rather than a pipe, the percentage of characters displayed so far is also shown. more then awaits a command. more allows forward movement and scrolls up to display one more line in response to a RETURN character; it displays another screenful in response to a SPACE character.

For more info see the man-page. Syntax is:

rohan%  man  more
