Change line length in "CMD"

ISTR there is a way to change the line length in XP's "DOS box" (or
more correctly the line command interface in XP got from running "CMD".

How do I change the line length and/or get lines to wrap.

Open CMD, right click its button in taskbar or right click its title bar > Choose
Properties > Reduce the Screen Buffer Size width.

Screen Buffer size should be equal or similar to Window Size : Width (Available at
the layout tab there )
