If I'm in text mode and run a command like, ls /usr/bin, I get a load of text scrolling by with no way to get back to the start of it. What command do I need to use so that I can scroll back through the text? Or are there any specific key combinations that will do this? I looked at "man ls" and "man tail", but there didn't seem to be any help there.
<shift><pg up> The problem with doing that from a command line is that if you switch vt's you loose the ability to scroll up. The same command also works from gnometerm/konsole, etc. except you do not loose the ability to scroll up if you switch screens.
