To scroll up while viewing a man page in the terminal, you can use the following keys:
- PageUp: Scrolls backward (up) one full screen.
- Up Arrow: Scrolls backward (up) one line at a time.
- U: Scrolls backward (up) one half-screen.
- G: Pressing the capital letter
G(orShift+G) takes you to the end, but pressing a lowercaseg(or1G) will jump you back to the very top (start) of the page.
Try it out:
If you are currently in the man free page:
- Press the Up Arrow key a few times to move line by line.
- Press PageUp to jump up a full section.
- Press Q when you are ready to exit.
Happy learning! I'm here if you need more help with navigation.
