<Para>
To affect the paging behavior of your <Command>psql</Command> 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.
<Para>
In csh/tcsh or other C shells:
<ProgramListing>
unsetenv PAGER
</ProgramListing>
while in sh/bash or other Bourne shells:
<ProgramListing>
unset PAGER
</ProgramListing>
