QSHOW Data Dictionary

[Pickering, John (NORBORD)]

If you've got a new enough release you can use "set report device disc" in
Qshow. Works in 8.39, not in 8.19. I think it's new in 8.39 but will happily
be corrected.

Otherwise you could set the output to a spool file and then fiddle it into a
regular disc file with your choice of editors or other manipulation tools.
