- The X command can be used to set or reset Expert status and also to set the
- number of lines sent before pausing during an R command. If no argument is
- given, X simply toggles and displays the new Expert status. When Expert
- status is set, the initial connect messages are replaced by a compatibility
- identifier line (currently [MSYS-ver-$]) and the command prompt is simply >.
- If a number is given after X, this is the number of lines to display
- for a R command before asking More? To continue displaying the current
- message when More? is sent press return. To abort the message, type N and
- then return. This facility has been added to prevent a long message from
- scrolling off your screen faster than you can read it. Experiment with
- different values until you find one that pleases you.
- To not use this facility, set the number of lines to zero. Examples:
- X 20 (pause after every 20 lines) X 0 (don't pause ever)
