Use of Ampersand to extend prompted field lengths:

If you are filling out a command prompt screen and need more room in an input field, try putting an ampersand (&) in the first position followed by one or more blanks. This will expand the field to its next size increment. The increments are 25, 80, 132, 256, and 512 characters. This is handy when working with CL programs that have expressions longer than the standard-length input field.
