Terminal printing on file is being shrank with ellipses

in flag

I am running a command like this: command > output.txt but my output.txt is having "...43 more items" written on it because the command prints too many things, it is like:

{
this is a text
text again
[more text,
more text
...43 more items
],
text again
}

Any help on how to make output.txt save all the lines without shrinking it with the "...43 more items" is very appreciated! Thank you :)

EDIT: My command is this one force:mdapi:describemetadata (source: here)

This fully depends on your "command".

oh, i cannot force it to print all the lines no matter what command? I've updated the question with the command anyway :)

It is unclear what you mean. The "command" gives some output and it is saved to file. You can change the command to give some other output, or filter the results by some text processing apps, like grep, sed,awk, etc

Screencast is needed. Please record a GIF using byzanz-record and share it in the question.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
