Formatting Output

You can control the format and appearance of your output with the command line switches in the following table.

Table 1. Switches for formatting output
Switch Description
-t Separates text output with tabs instead of spaces.
-pb Inserts page breaks between output from different procedures and/or between individual output items.
-n width Fixes the width of the columns in the table. Width is an integer that specifies the maximum number of characters that will appear in a column.
-rs "character" Defines character as the character to use as the row separator for tables in text output.
-cs "character" Defines character as the character to use as the column separator for tables in text output.

Note: Output requested with the OUTPUT SAVE command honors these switches.
