DL Every record is displayed in its full length, or up to the end of the screen.

Instead of DL, the commands EL (Edit Long) or DW (Display Wide) may be given.

Instead of NDL, the commands ELO (Edit Long Off) or DS (Display Short) may be specified.

Note:

As an alternative to displaying a file in DL mode, refer also to the AD (Arrange Data) command on page 8-. This command facilitates the selective display of particular column ranges of a file. The sequence and length of these column ranges is unrestricted. A display format (character/hexadecimal) can be set for each column selection.
