Use ViewColumn to adjust the view horizontally based upon a specified base column.

 

ViewColumn may also be entered as ViewCol[umn] or View.

 

Optional Operands

 

COL1 Default: 1. See notes following table.

 

COL2 See notes following table.

 

COL1 through COL2 specify an ascending sequence of column numbers.  ViewColumnwill move the cursor horizontally to the first specified column that is greater than the current cursor column.  If none of the specified columns are greater than the current cursor column, the cursor will be moved horizontally to the COL1 column.  Specifying both COL1 and COL2 has the effect of alternating the view base column between COL1 and COL2.

 

Pressing Alt-V invokes the following command:

 

   => ViewCol 1 53

 

If COL1 is specified with a preceding plus sign (+), it will be interpreted as as an increment to the current base column position.  If COL1 is specified with a preceding minus sign (-), it will be interpreted as as an decrement to the current base column position.

 

Return Codes

 

OK Successful.

   => view 1 53
