I use PICO as my command line editor. Yep, I know there are many alternatives, and everybody has their favorities. Mine is Pico.
Except for one small problem I have been having.... When I type a line beyond the screen's end, it wraps when I do not want it to. Is there a special command I am missing that prevents pico from inserting a hard return when you reach the end of a line?
I know its possible because occasionally I come across a line that ends with a $ and you can scroll to the right to read the characters beyond the $... What I do not know how to do is actually get to edit in this mode.
Thanks!
