history with command line
 

how do I make it so that the history is longer on the command line? sometimes when I'm doing a search on the command line, I need to go farther up but I cna't :(

<command> |more

eg: ls |more

then use space bar or down arrow to see more, q key to stop

oh okay thanks man!

I think you probably meant to say less rather than more.

i.e.

ls | less

You can't go back with more, it just paginates your output.
