How to use the more command on a Linux system? Many novices are not very clear about this. In order to help you solve this problem, the following editor will explain it in detail. People with this need can come and learn. I hope you can gain something.

More is one of our most commonly used tools. The most common tool is to display the output, then page it according to the size of the window, and then prompt the percentage of the file.

The more function is similar to cat, where the cat command displays the contents of the entire file on the screen from top to bottom. More will be a page-by-page display to facilitate users to read page by page, and the most basic instruction is to press the blank key (space) to display to the next page, press the b key to go back to (back) a page to display, and has the function of searching for strings. The more command reads the file back and forth, so the entire file is loaded at startup.

1. Command format:

More [- dlfpcsu] [- num] [+ / pattern] [+ linenum] [file...]

2. Command function:

The more command is the same as cat's function is to view the contents of the file, but the difference is that more can view the contents of the file by page, but also supports direct jump line and other functions.

3. Command parameters:

Linuxidc@linuxidc:~/ Desktop / Linux Commune $more-help
