I play on nao server using cmd.exe on win10 and I turn the curses

There's no way to do that with 3.6.x. 3.7 (which hasn't been
released yet) has added a '|' (verical bar) command which lets
you send '>' (next page), '<' (previous page, useful after '>' or '|'),
^' (first page), and '|' (last page) keystrokes to the perm_invent
window, plus new '}' (shift view to right) and '{' (shift view back
to left) to see text that's normally truncated at the edge of the
screen. Unfortunately the perm_invent display resets to
showing that window's top-left corner every time perm_invent
gets updated, and it tends to get updated a lot.
If you set 'windowborders' to 0, the perm_invent window will
gain two more rows and three or four more columns. That
isn't much improvement in what you can see but is probably
better than nothing. I don't remember whether 3.6.x supports
windowborders:3. If so, that will leave the borders around
the map, message window, and status window but take them
off of perm_invent, again giving it two extra rows but only
two extra columns.
You can also change 'packorder' to show object classes in
a different order. Changing the order does not allow you to
see a second page but does allow you more control of what
you see on the first page. The default is gold, amulets,
weapons, armor, and then other stuff but gold is also shown
as status and if you carry a lot of weapons and armor they
will use many lines on the first page of perm_invent. Note
that changing 'packorder' changes regular 'i' as well as
perm_invent. It also changes ',' if you have 'sortloot' set.
You can always see the whole inventory by issuing the 'i'
command and doing normal menu positioning with it.
