Configuring the Scroll Line Count for BR*Tools

The BR*Tools character interface uses 20 lines for scrolling in lists. You can lengthen or shorten the display. For example, you can choose to use more than 20 lines for the scroll line count if your command windows have more than 20 lines.

Note Note

This section is not relevant for the graphical user interface, BRGUI, where you can scroll freely.

End of the note.
