Lists data elements of a Midas file or table in a graphical window.

VIEW - lists data elements of a Midas file or table in a graphical window

<FILE>      Midas Data, Text, or Table file to list
<TEMPLATE>  Midas keyword file or Midas .tbl file with a formatting template

This is a fast list display that holds nothing in memory. All reads are directly
from the file and an edit goes directly to the file. Macro's can edit the file
using binary access and send a REREAD message to update the display, or add the
/EDIT switch to allow VIEW to change the binary file.

For 3000 files, entering AUTO for the template will produce a default grid display.

Switches:
  /BIN  - display data file in binary format
  /HEX  - display data files in hexadecimal format
  /NC=  - number of columns (1000/2000 only)
  /L    - show line numbers
  /EDIT - allow editing of data fields
  /FILL - fill bottom|right blank space 
  /GRID - show grid between rows and columns
  /SCROLL - show scroll bar 
  /SW=  - limit the screen width [DEF=computed internally]
