title: Python command to view a list with 1000 elements
body: <p>i am using command prompt in Win 7 OS. What is the python command to view a list of 1000 items in the interpreter ?</p>
  <p>i load the interpreter in the command prompt of win 7. so please explain keeping that in consideration.</p>
  <p>For example:</p>
  <p>a similar situation to view the output in linux will be:</p>
  <p>hello.py <strong>| more</strong></p>
  <p>I want to know the python command to be used in the interpretor to view a list which contain more than 1000 items.</p>
  <p>&quot;   &gt;&gt;&gt; l</p>
  <h1>where l is the list</h1>
  <p>&quot;</p>
  <p>i meant generally the screen scrolls down at such a fast rate that the previous elements cant be viewed. so i drew an analogy that in UNIX when we have a directory containing 1000 or more files we use ( | more )  so that it halts after displaying a few elements and when we press enter the remaining are viewed</p>
  <p>explain bit more about your problem</p>
