Look under options, posting preferences, general. Uncheck 
Word wrap or set your line lenght ( directly across from 
word wrap) to your spec. 132 works well for a size 8 font
with 17 inch screen.

To set your font. Options, display preferences, font. My
preferance is courier new size 8. You find 4 or 5 items
that can be toyed with to acheive the desired results.

For saving a picture, use notepad. Uncheck word wrap
an set the font to the same as above. Select (Save as)
enter file name -- with the extension  .txt
