In article <1993Apr4.161038.6519@stortek.com>, pg@sanitas.stortek.com (Paul Gilmartin) says: THis may not help and you may already know this but.... Normally xediting a file by doing xedit fn ft will yield an 80 character line for MOST filetypes but not all (exec and xedit are 255 I think). Doing an edit fn ft yields a 255 character line. This obviously isn't a SET RESERVED subcommand but maybe it will do what you are looking for. > >eric snyder (ESNYDER@PSUHMC.BITNET) wrote: >: Does anyone know how to display a field larger than 80 >: characters on a screen using the SET RESERVED subcommand.
