- I use my Psion Series 3 with a modem for email and general networking.
- The default text window is typically 80 characters by 24 lines.
- This is about 3 Psion screens wide, and 3 tall.
- Now, I don't mind scrolling up and down,
- but side-to-side scrolling is a pain.
-
- Is there ANY way to force a line wrap at the end of the screen?
- I don't even care if it cuts words in half!
-
- For example, could you write a program that counts characters
- as they come in from the modem and inserts a <return> at screen's end?
-
- Is there any way to modify the modem?
- Is there any way to make it pause at screen-fulls?
- Does anyone else have this problem?
-
- Russ
