I need to see output of db.currentOp() in my mongo console (mongo.exe) on Windows. But it gives so much results that they don't fit the screen. If I scroll up with the scrollbar on the left, I still can't get entire output. Is there a way to see the entire output?
Thanx
It sounds like you need to increase the Screen Buffer Size in your Windows Command Prompt settings.

Under Ubuntu 14.04, I'm writing a script that output a lot of text (several commands...), and I would like to keep one or more lines always on top of the terminal screen to display what's running title.
In other words, I try to reduce terminal vertical scroll zone and write in that non-scrolling zone.
How can I do that? I saw similar stuff using a loop catching output line by line, but I'm unable to find a way to tell the system to print from let's say line 2 or 3.
Thanks for your answers,
Nicolas
Nic, it appears this does quite nicely.

I'm using Sikuli to do some tests which requires the computers resolution and text size to be set to a certain size. In this case, the text size should be set as "smaller - 100%". I'd like the computer to check to make sure this is the case before it actually wastes time attempting to run the test.
Is there a command you can type into command prompt that will tell you what the text size setting is set to? Or another quick way of finding the information? The only way I know of to get the information is Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display. Using Sikuli to open up the control panel and visually check the text size wouldn't be worth the time, so I'd like a quick way of checking.
Also, I'd rather this be without any addon or anything like that.
Thanks.

Is there a way to set the mac terminal to output its lastest output in a different color?
I am tired of wasting time looking for the last command when the terminal gets filled.
No, but you could arrange for your prompt to be in a different color. You could also split the pane; the bottom will scroll with the output while the top stays wherever it was.
When i run a command in cygwin when scrolled up it starts writing the output to that screen, so everything gets written over.
How can I change settings so that output will always be appended to the end not to where I have currently scrolled my window.
I found that rxvt doesn't do that but it also doesn't show me äöõü characters:(
Are you sure it's overwriting where you've currently scrolled to? I find the console just jumps back to the cursor position when there's new output. Still annoying though, and I don't know of a way to switch off that behaviour.
Anyway, have a look at 'mintty'. Like rxvt, it doesn't need an X server, but it does support Unicode, so the umlauts should be fine.
When open command prompt window. I found black fixed size windows that can scaling only vertical direction, but when i type wmic command it seem horizontal scaling also available. I just suspect what method that wmic force command prompt windows like that. Does one can explain?
A console program can change the size of the screen buffer (You can also have more than one screen buffer, but only one can be visible)
See SetConsoleScreenBufferSize()
