rails console pry/irb "stuck" after displaying long value/string

Question

I am developing with rails on a mac using the rails console via pry/irb.

When I display a long result in the console ie. Model.all or .really_long_string, I cant seem to get past the string or value that is displayed and the console displays "(END)" at the end of the console.

What command do I use to get past this so I can continue entering ruby statements on the console without having to close the terminal window?

I recently discovered Ctrl Z to close the console, but I assume there is a better way

When Pry opens up the irb, type in "exit" – Darladarlan

Press "q" as described here: #15958646 – Principality

Looks likes the END is made by a pager. Have u tried typing "q"?

I've been looking for this very answer for weeks. I had gotten into the habit of just opening a new terminal window whenever it would get stuck. – Urticaria
