26.7.6 Paging in the terminal emulator

Term mode has a pager feature. When the pager is enabled, term mode will pause at the end of each screenful.

C-c C-q

Toggles the pager feature: Disables the pager if it is enabled, and vice versa. This works in both line and char modes. If the pager enabled, the mode-line contains the word ‘page’.

If the pager is enabled, and Term receives more than a screenful of output since your last input, Term will enter More break mode. This is indicated by ‘**MORE**’ in the mode-line. Type a Space to display the next screenful of output. Type ? to see your other options. The interface is similar to the Unix ‘more’ program.
