Subject: Quickie: how to stop line wrapping when doing a search etc


I am using Redhat 6.2 and I have the annoying problem that when you do a
ldap search that when a line produced by ldapsearch is above a certain
charcter length the line is wrapped to the next line with a newlineSPACE
added. I am using putty as my terminal emulator but I don't think that this
is the problem. Even if I direct the output to a file it stills happens.

How do I
a) stop this
b) use a unix tool (vi etc) to remove the added characters.



Sample output:
