[Dx4win] Packet window formatting

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

Hi Steve,

The Packet Window did not change in V8.  Did you import your
preferences (via .INI file) from V7 to V8?  My Packet Window looks
exactly the same in V7 and V8.

Maybe the cluster node you're connecting to is sending out a wider
format.  You can set SET/WIDTH to narrow it.
