How to display in 132 columns in STRDBG

Hi Ken,

Thank you for sharing how to get the  ILE debugger to use 132 columns.  I just 
tried this in v4r4 and I can't get it to work.  Does anyone know when this 
started to become available?  I can see the variable when I do WRKENVVAR just 
fine.  I'm using CA  v5r1m0 with SI08389.  I have the display session 
configured for  27x132.  When I display a joblog I can see 130 positions.

Does anyone know why debug wouldn't show me 132 columns?

Thank you,

Gary Kuznitz
