Thanks for the multiple examples!
 
As for the 'spaced out' case (excerpt below) ... this really would not work
for me.   I often have 5-9 windows open when I'm programming and these are
80 characters wide so I can minimise overlaps.  With the suggested layout
this would only work for programs less than ~40 characters wide!   Here's
how the excerpt looks for me (and this example has very short lines -- most
of my programs use 72 or more characters per line for better commentary):
 
---> mt91.rex_nr_1_via_JSR223
R1   T1   A1                    3 *-* t=.Test~new
R1   T1   A2    V1      1*     21 *-* say "arrived in:" .context~name
arrived in: INIT
R1   T1   A2    V1      1*     22 *-* counter=0
R1   T1   A1                      >>>   "a TEST"
R1   T1   A1                    4 *-* t~m1
R1   T1   A3    V1      1*     27 *-* counter+=1          -- increase
counter
R1   T1   A3    V1      1*     28 *-* say "arrived in:" .context~name
"before reply"
 
Almost any line of any length will wrap.  That's why the trace headers in
Rexx are kept as short as feasible.  Adding an unexplained 27 characters on
the front of each line makes little sense, especially as the information is
the same on most lines, and as I mentioned before is not user-friendly (here
I mean 'user' as being a writer of Rexx programs, not someone who runs a
Rexx program without looking at it or caring which language it is written
in).
