install If you specify the install parameter for the set default.save.textLimit command, all documents with save.textLimit set to default will use the value of install.save.textLimit to determine the text limit that should be used by the save command.

Description

If you do not specify any of the parameters for the set save.textLimit command, default is assumed. If you do not specify any of the parameters for the set default.save.textLimit command, install is assumed.

The query current.save.textLimit command returns the text limit that is used, within the current document, by the save command. A value of 0 indicates that the line length is limited only by system restrictions.
