ACCOUNTING, /WIDE
*Conan The Librarian
|
Changes the width of Buffered I/O and Direct I/O fields in a
report from 8 to 10 characters.
When used with the /BRIEF qualifier, it increases the SOURCE
field length to 9 characters resulting in a total display
width of 81 characters for both interactive and non-interactive
processes. By default, the display of the SOURCE field is
truncated to 8 characters, which results in a total display
width of 80 characters.
Format
/WIDE
This qualifier corrects a problem that users have had with
ACCOUNTING reports: the Buffered I/O and Direct I/O fields were
too small and displayed asterisks (*) when numbers exceeded 8
characters.
The /WIDE qualifier changes the widths of the Buffered I/O and
Direct I/O fields in reports to 10 characters.
When used with the /BRIEF qualifier, it displays the trailing
colon of long device names in the SOURCE field.
The /WIDE qualifier in conjunction with /BRIEF qualifier is
used to display 9 characters of the SOURCE field. The /WIDE
qualifier extends the width of display to 81 characters
irrespective of the current terminal width and the type of
process, that is, whether the process is interactive,
non-interactive, or batch process.

If the /WIDE qualifier is not in conjunction with /BRIEF qualifier,
the ":" in the SOURCE field is not displayed when the number
of characters in the field exceeds 8 characters. With the /WIDE
qualifier, it displays the complete SOURCE field for large devices.
