[GAP Forum] saved output & SizeScreen?

I have two questions:
How can I turn off "SizeScreen"? That is, I'd like output to be one
long line containing no newline characters & no \ . If I try, for
example, SizeScreen([10000,]), it gets set to 256.
gap> SizeScreen([10000,]);;
gap> SizeScreen();
[ 256, 28 ]
I find it a bit strange that I can't find a direct way to simply turn
of the "for the screen" formatting totally. I assume that there is one.
Also is there a way to remove the spaces from the output? As far as I
can tell, if results are read back into gap, omission of spaces causes
no problems.
At the moment I must write a result to a file & use a perl script to
fix things. This is surely the wrong way to do it. Presumably I can
do it directly in gap, but it seems a bit odd that I can't find a way
to simply avoid the problems in the first place. Is there one?
Thanks.
Keith
