Use less.
ls -al | less
If you're used to typing more, put
alias more="less"
in your /etc/profile.

Well,
since I cannot find a cygwin 'more' in the tree, I thought about using
MORE.COM.
But
$ ls -al | more.com
_does_ work like a page-stopper, however, the output is displayed in a
completely chaotic manner.
Not an output that could at least remind you of a "table output". Out of
order, out of sync.
