The
AUTOWRAP command is toggled on or off. The first time you issue the AUTOWRAP
command, it reverses the current setting. If the current setting is ON, then
issuing the AUTOWRAP command changes the setting to OFF. If the current setting
is OFF, then issuing the AUTOWRAP command changes the setting to ON.
- ON
-
turns on the AUTOWRAP command in the window so that text
is wrapped when it is inserted in the window, or when it is moved to an external
file.
- OFF
-
turns off the AUTOWRAP command in the window. Depending
on the line length, text can be truncated as it is inserted in the window,
or when it is moved to an external file.
When the AUTOWRAP command is turned on, you can use the
INCLUDE or COPY commands. These commands can insert a file, which has a line
length that exceeds the boundaries of the window, in a window. The text in
the file is not truncated. Instead, lines in the file are split at word boundaries.
Conversely, the AUTOWRAP command enables you to use the FILE command to send
text, which has a line length that exceeds the boundaries of a file, to an
external file. The text in the file is not truncated. Lines are split at word
boundaries. When the AUTOWRAP command is turned off, text can be truncated
depending on the line length of the text and of the window or file.
