<P>
To change the linelength, 
&lt;expression&gt; must evaluate to a positive integer less than 128 
(although this varies from system to system), and should not be less than 
20 or so for proper operation.

<em>linelength</em>returns the previous linelength. If you want the current 
linelength value, but not change it, say <em>linelength nil</em>.
