try the even simpler command:
x = findgen(10)*!pi
print, x, format='(' + strtrim(n_elements(x),2) + '(f10.6))'

This will print out all elements on a single line.

As an additional note, if you use print, x, format='((f10.6))', you'll
get each element printed on its own line, but they still all get
printed. More useful, perhaps, is the idea that you can get an
appropriate line length this way.

x = findgen(1000)*!pi
print, x, format='(10(f10.6))'

will give you 100 lines with 10 elements each on them.

You probably knew this, but there may have been some who didn't.
