You want better ways than "type" to view a text file on a PC? Ok...

Install 4dos (a replacement for COMMAND.COM) Now type:
	list filename

You can now page forwards and backwards thru the file or even
search for occurences of a string. And if you switch to 43x80
or 50x80 or whatever, it cheerfully switches to accomodate.

4dos is a *great* program, and has good support. 

BTW it also lets you create aliases ala unix shells.
