A couple of questions I received from a user and after reviewing the
beta manuals and LISTDB MEMO documentation, I can't answer:
 
* Is there anyway to provide a "continuation line" in a non-VM search
  command?  With the VM version you just put a hyphen at the end of a
  line and continued on the next; but this doesn't work on 1.8c/NT.
  Instead I get:
 
> > search * in hp3000-l since nov 96 -
> Invalid narrowing option - "-".
>
> > where subject contains 2680
> Unknown command - "WHERE". Try HELP.
 
* Is there any way to get more than 100 "hits" from a search?  The old
  outlim=xx doesn't seem to work either:
 
> > search * in hp3000-l since nov 96 where subject contains "2680" outlim=2
> Invalid search expression - string operation attempted on non-string
> operand.
 
Thanks in advance...
