Description
The maximum number of back pages of output that can be retrieved and displayed by using the backpage command.
The default backpage command is P; it can be reset by changing the PAGE parameter.
If NBKPG is greater than 0, the largest allowable value for the LOUTPB parameter is PAGESZ minus 40.
The number of pages is always one more than the specified value. For example, if NBKPG is 5, P -5 retrieves the sixth page back.
