I have an isql command that produces output lines about 114 characters long.
If I run the command in a cmd prompt window that is wider than that, the
output is correct. But if I redirect the output to a file or use the -o
parameter to put the output into a file each line is split into 3 separate
lines. It looks like the split is done around column 75 or so. How do I get
this to leave the output lines untouched?

Naturally once I posted the question I figured out that the -w parameter for
isql set the output width.
