Title: Console display configuration
Post by: manuman on June 05, 2005, 11:50:06 AM

Hi all,
a simple question : is it possible to customize the output of my console in order to have more than 80 cols with 25 raws displayed, cause i can't see all the infos when i enter something like

Code: [Select]

rpm --help for example ?

  Thanks.

Not the answer to your question, but this may help. Use  rpm --help | less. This willl give you the output a page at a time.

Bob

if you are talking about PuTTY, then you can change the window options before you connect

Thanks crazybob and kruhm for your replies.
I think i'm going to use the less command to do the job.
But i still wonder if the 80x25 default output can be customized on an SME box.
Any suggestion ?
