vii

Execute a command repeatedly and scroll the output

Vii (pronounced seven) is a simple program which accepts input from the standard input and displays pages of the input on the terminal. These pages are delimited by form-feeds (or EOF). The display can be scrolled if the output is wider or longer than the screen. Vii can also repeatedly execute a command (at a configurable interval) and the most recent output is displayed. This is useful for status monitoring where the command itself does not have a repeatable or curses interface.
