Command window improvement

[Michael D]

I noticed that the Command window ignores the SQL*Plus setting LINESIZE. The linesize is defaulted to 80 characters, so I need to switch to SQL*Plus from time to time when I need a longer line, for example when spooling to a file.
Can the LINESIZE feature be added to the command window (or show the correct behaviour if it's already there).

Thanks,
Michael

The Command Window does not really have a line size limit, so there is no need to set it. It does have a limit for long fields though, which can be set with the "SET LONG " command.

It seems it also has a maximum column width of 80 characters. Using the "SET COL [width]" option did the trick for me.
