I'm new to ubuntu using the terminal to code some ruby.
Everytime I run this command it outputs like 600 lines of data that I need to analyze.
But when I try to scroll up to see everything alot of the output is cut off.
Is there any way to change the settings of the terminal or another command prompt program or any other options that I can use to take a look all of the data?

If you close the Command prompt window, and on the next opening of CMD, all the previous commands will be gone. Now open Command Prompt window, and start executing your commands. Suddenly you need the previous command you just wrote, but it just skipped from your mind.
Although Microsoft has released more tools like PowerShell and Windows Terminal, users still like to use the Command Prompt for their day-to-day command line tasks.
Inside your Terminal Window, go to Edit | Profile Preferences, click on the Scrolling tab, and check the Unlimited checkbox underneath the Scrollback XXX lines row. Click Close and be happy.
