Subject: Newsgroup subject line length

Does anybody know if there is a way to make PINE display the entire
subject line of newsgroup headers in a listing of articles?  Many of the
binary groups seem to have very long subject lines and the only way I can
read them is to display the whole the message.  This can be very time
consuming if the "text" is very long. I was hoping there was a setting
that would allow the full 80 columns of the subject field to be viewed
without calling up the whole message. 

Also does anybody know the correct syntax to pipe a binary article to sz 
for download directly to my terminal without having to export and exit 
PINE first?

Thanks in advance for any help.

If you have access to Pine 3.92, you might experiment with the
index-format in the Setup/Config screen to see if you can come up with
something better for you.

In Pine 3.92, set "download-command=sz" in the Setup/Config screen.

Neither of these features are available in Pine 3.91 or earlier.
