You can use the WIDTH keyword in openw to override IDL's default of 80
columns per line.

You can also save / load binary copies of the structure using the SAVE/
RESTORE procedures. If you aren't doing anything else with the ascii
files, this is more efficient in both space and read/write time. I
tried this out by writing findgen(5000,5000) to file - using SAVE was
5 times faster and resulted in a file that was 4 times smaller.
