The pagebreak command is used to set your pagebreak so that you will see only
a given number of lines of text at a time.  Any time you are sent more lines
than specified by your pagebreak numbers, the screen will pause and hold the
data for you.  For no pagebreak, set the value to zero or -1.

The implicit pagebreak is used for things that are intended to be long, such
as the 'who' list or system changelog.

The forced pagebreak is used any time you receive a given number of lines of
text.

WARNING - if you set a forced pagebreak, it is strongly recommended that
you set it to a larger value than your implicit pagebreak.  Forced pagebreak
may occur at any time, including when you're fighting or doing something
involved.  It is usually safe to leave forced pagebreak off.

The default values are fine for most players.

To stop paging, type 'q'.  To see the next frame of text, either press
<return> or use the 'continue' command.
