Obviously, the XP version of psql uses the command "more" for paging the
output when it's too big to show in a single page. As I'm using Linux
myself, I can't give you any specific advice, but it appears that the
command "more" for some reason is not found in the path of your system.
That's a little strange, as "more" has been part of the MS toolbox
since the Stone Age of DOS.
