Paging Pages/Articles

i hope this makes sense and is posted in the right forum.

problem: let’s say i have a wordpress page or a wordpress post (probably post). let’s say it’s a long article, and i don’t want that article to scroll for miles. let’s say i want that article to be broken up into pages, linked together like a story should (next, previous or numbered pages). let’s say i want it done in a way that’s fairly automatic (either designating where an article “pages”, or going by word count, paragraph count or whatever) that is, so i don’t have to make multiple individual posts so make a muti-page article.

… does that make sense? is there a way, a trick, or a plug in that does something along those lines for wordpress?

thank you in advance!

EDIT: disregard! i found the post i was looking for!
