Linux / Unix: How do I extend the terminal width or set term variables with ksh?
Posted by

I have a putty remote session or any terminal session with ksh shell. When I insert a long command I can see ‘<' suddenly appear on the line and my command begins to scroll horizontally between prompt and '<' sign while I keep on writing it.
I want to make it clear: a '<' sing does not appear at the end of the visible line (ie. limited by putty window) but in the middle of it. Is there a way to change it to higher value? I tried TERM, but did not set it.
Answer: You have to define $COLUMNS after you login or in .kshrc. Similarly, you can also define $LINES.
Open your .kshrc or edit .kshrc, and add
COLUMNS=160
This will set the width to 160 visible columns in your terminal
