R help - Apr 2011 - str() on a data frame with 600 variables

Hello..

How do I get str() to show all variables in a data frame? It seems to be
"list output truncated" at about 99 variables, the data frame has over
600 but i can't seem to figure out how to show all variables, we see
list.len() but again can't seem to figure this out - help will be
appreciated. 

R> str(raw)

'data.frame': 1201 obs. of  626 variables:

.

.

$ varXYZ            : int  0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ...

  [list output truncated]

Try:

  str(raw, list.len = 999)



DF <- as.data.frame(matrix(1:1000, 50, 200))

Use str(raw, list.len=1000).
