Hello All,
I am working on paging feature on tty, pty outputting. Is there anyway
I can do paging output at tty drivers by way of setting some options
using ioctl or ....
Please let me know, to give you some idea
if you type
ls -l | more on command prompt you see the output in paging fashion.
This is the kind of feature I want it on tty fds. Please let me know
if anyone has any better idea. thanks.

Regards,
Sri.

Things like page dimensions and escape code management are userspace
handled in Linux. If you must fake it via a tty then I'd suggest you
write a pty/tty using app, if not then pipe it through more.
For the former case a simple expect script should do it.
