Does any one out there know a good way to edit a file with long (>255) lines without them wrapping? I use a SPARC station2 with Open Windows and ideally what I would like is something like textedit with a horizontal scroll bar, so that I can have a *real* window on my file which can be scrolled both horizontally and vertically. I have tried the clip lines in textedit but there still seems to be hard limit on the maximum width and it is quite hard to move horizontally. advTHANKSance --John (jbiggs@armltd.co.uk)
