Since a few weeks I have the following problem: When I have some text output in the command window (e.g. when typing help plot) I always get --more-- in the command window after about 20-30 lines. I have to press any key to continue.
I could not figure out which function might cause this. Is there any way to suppress/overwrite this behaviour?
I am using MATLAB 7.9.0 (R2009b).

This is controlled by the command more. Does not sound surprising, does it? See doc more:
more off
I'd expect this behavior to vanish after a restart of Matlab. If you observe this for several weeks, you find a corresponding command in your code most likely, so use the Search in the editor to lookfor "more on" or "more('on')" inside the user-defined files.
