+To affect the paging behavior of your psql output,
+set or unset your PAGER environment variable.  I always have to set mine
+before it will pause.  And of course you have to do this before
+starting the program.
+
+
+In csh/tcsh or other C shells:
+
+
+  unsetenv PAGER
+
+
+while in sh/bash or other Bourne shells:
+
+
+  unset PAGER
