If you type capital Q to quit the multi-page output it does nothing. For example users may have Caps lock turned on. I compared the behavior with linux commands more and less and they both react to capital Q.

You can reproduce this issue using following commands:

./bin/jboss-cli.sh
[disconnected /] embed-server
[standalone@embedded /] /subsystem=elytron:read-resource-description(recursive=true)
# type capital Q
