Try this version instead.  There's no need to find the % 15, we're
already paging on the specified number.

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'optparse'

def banner
  print "\n[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]\n\n"
end

pagesize =3D 15

optparse =3D OptionParser.new do |opts|
  opts.banner =3D 'usage: npg [-n pagesize] file...'

  opts.on('-n', '--numlines pagesize', 'Specify page size in number of line=
s') do |n|
    pagesize =3D n.to_i
  end

end

begin
  optparse.parse!
rescue OptionParser::InvalidOption, OptionParser::MissingArgument =3D> e
  puts e
  puts optparse
  exit 1
end

banner
loop do
  pagesize.times do
    if line =3D gets
      puts line
    else
      banner
      exit
    end
  end
  banner
  print "More..."
  system "stty raw"
  STDIN.getc
  system "stty -raw"
  banner
end
