unix2dos has nothing to do with the length of a line. It only changes the line-end characters that occur when a new line is specifically indicated (i.e. at the end of each log entry). Wrapping is entirely a function of the program in which you are viewing the text. So tweak your Outlook to wrap or not-wrap as you see fit. -- Jeff _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
