"more" like command in R console

Question

Is there any command in R console which behaves same as "more" command in Linux? Consider this

>x=list(seq(100000), seq(100000))
>x

It displays everything at one go and shows message at the end "reached getOption("max.print")". Scrolling back to top doesn't show me the first values. I need a command like more(x) which will show more and more by pressing space bar.

I'm not aware of such a function and have never missed it because I don't feel the need to look at each element of large objects. However, you could implement that yourself. — Roland, Feb 20 '15 at 12:56

Would ?page do the trick? e.g., page(list(a = rnorm(1000), b=rnorm(1000)))

Nice answer. There is also the option of `method="print"`, which maybe handy. – nicola Feb 20 '15 at 14:10
