I will as soon as I have an idea about the "that" I have to try. I don't use column narrowing; I don't know what other users expect from it either. Are there some rules to decide what would be an acceptable narrowing (e.g., narrow columns larger than 10 characters by half or to 20 characters, whichever is the smaller) or do users really need to decide piece-wise the number of characters needed? If the latter, would a numeric argument for the narrowing command be sufficient? Note that in this case, it may not be possible to narrow multiple columns at a time. Also, do we need to commands for that, or would cycling between expanded/narrowed by some factor (see above)/shrunk states be sufficient? What about the command line to control multiple columns? IOW, let's discuss about specifications. Regards,
