How view 1000 line when use command on linux

Example command:

$ lo开发者_开发知识库cate .conf
$ ls

if it shows 1000 lines, how can I view all lines? In terminal, there's a restriction for xx line (I don't know)

---

Pipe the output to a pager like more or less.

$ locate .conf | less

For more complex output I also like to pipe into vim.

$ g++ -E something.cpp | vi -

---

Pipe the long command through "less":

ls | less

---

Additionally to less and vim usage which is the most common case here you can also increase the buffer size of your terminal, if you are using gonme-terminal edit the profile used and set the desired number of lines.
