Terminal Window
When I'm using the terminal window and I type a command the list information or instructions that exceeds the width of the screen how do I toggle up or down to see the information that is not on the screen?

Depends on your terminal and/or DE/WM ... the "safest" way would be to
use less and pipe the info into that. E.g.: ls -l | less Then you should be able to use the cursor and page keys to navigate up and down failing that f & b to page forward and backward. Cheers, Tink |
If you use something like Konsole, you have a scroll bar.
The other tool to learn is grep. Suppose you want to list a directory, but only display files with "lib" in the name: ls | grep lib |
try shift+page up/down
