width of output



Another quick question regarding output.  I am writing to a file using 
appendfile and print.  However, some of my lines are rather long, and 
hence add extra line breaks.  Is there any way to change the width of 
the output so that this does not happen, as it makes later analysis 
rather inconvenient.

Indeed, is there a general way to change the width of a maxima session 
to accommodate a wider shell?
