Is it possible to limit what goes into the schedule log?

2006-09-29 Thread Angus Macdonald

2006-09-22 Thread Angus Macdonald
How do I convince my console output to display in wide format, like in the redbooks? My course tutor did show me but that was 18 months before I touched Tivoli for real and it seemed so trivial I didn't make a note of it. Angus
