Hello Linda,

 HG> As you can see, I have it wrapping at 72 columns.

 HG> I have the same setting in my editor, QEdit for OS/2 and TSE for DOS.

LP>To be honest I don't know who's example I sent about the wrapping.

LP>This is my line wrap:
LP>------------------------------------------------------------------------
LP>------------------------------------------------------------------------
LP>--

Seems OK to me. With the addition of "LP>" they come out as 75
characters which means 72+3=75. Still well inside 79 characters and
allowing for another set of "HG>" before the 80 character limit.

Actually I've found that 79 is the maximum in most cases when the screen
width is 80 characters.

Have a nice day,

Holger
