lister set <handle> field [<number> <string>]

This allows you to set your own strings to be used in the lister field
titles. You can not change the nature of the columns in the lister - this
just allows you to change the heading.

The  number  (0-9) specifies which string to replace from the table:-

        name     0,
        size     1,
        access   2,
        date     3,
        comment  4,
        type     5,
        owner    6,
        group    7,
        net      8,
        version  9.

Set to an empty string to restore the default.

You will need to do a  lister refresh  full  to update the display
once you have changed the titles.

 handle  is the handle of the lister in question.

For example,
        + lister set 121132636 field 0 "FileName" 4 "Notes"


lister set <handle> field (on|off)

This allows you to remove field titles altogether ("off") and replace them
when you are finished ("on"). (You cannot use 1 and 0 instead of "on" and
"off", for obvious reasons.)

 handle  is the handle of the lister in question.

Note that if field titles have not been enabled in the configuration, an
ARexx script is unable to turn them on.
