[GAP Forum] Automatically truncating long output

I find that I often accidentally ask GAP to print a large structure (usually by forgetting the second semicolon) and I have to wait for 30 seconds or a minute for it to complete.  I know that I can interrupt it with Control-C, but this often leaves the prompt indented and doesn't work well running under emacs.  Is there a setting, or some function that I can override to cause GAP to print, say 10 lines, and then prompt if I want to continue (or something similar)?
