Well, I'm not sure I guess is the correct answer.  I can only report on the fact
that the current version is showing all the data on the same line where as .0a
version was wrapping it in the window.

What I am trying to avoid is having to view on that data on one line.  A "Force
Wrap" option would do that for me in this case.
