This code sets the maximum number of characters in a line.


!+WIDTH<spaces>+

NOTES _____
• If the number of blank character positions left on a line is
smaller than the size of the next word because !+WIDTH+ is
smaller than the word or because of a tab, the width of a line
will be extended by one character. The word in question will
be split over two lines and a hyphen ("-") will be inserted in
the right margin after the split.
• When this code is issued, any default column boundaries are
also reset.
• The maximum !+WIDTH+ is 110 spaces (unless the "Large" option
of FULLPRINT is specified, which allows 132).
