You did not mention what operating system you are using, but I'll
assume that it is a UNIX variant.

psql is looking for the "pager" application, which displays data one
terminal page at a time. Usually this program is /bin/more. I
believe that psql uses /bin/more by default, but an alternate
application may be specified in the PAGER environment variable.
