Format output for cut-and-paste from the output window

This is less of a trick and more of a tip, I guess.  The SAS output window is displayed in SAS Monotype font.  This is a hassle when you need to cut-and-paste into, say, a word document, or a blog entry.

To use plain text, issue the command

OPTIONS FORMCHAR="|----|+|---+=|-/\<>*";

Then the output will cut-and-paste just fine.
