The length of the displayed line is determined by the foreign conjunction 9!:37
First, store the default so you can easily go back
t=. 9!:36 '' NB. The current default
0 256 0 222
First number - End of line indicator 0 for LF and 2 for CRLF
Second number - Maximum line length (this is what you want to change)
Third number - Maximum number of lines before ... (b)
Fourth number - Maximum number of lines after ... (a)
If a + b is more than the number of lines to be shown,
then the first b lines are shown followed by ... then the last a lines.
9!:37 [ 0 700 0 222 NB. the [ is to separate the integer list from the conjunction

This works with the J front end, but I have not yet tested with console. Since your defaults look the same with console and there is no indication that I can find in the dictionary that console works differently than the front end, I would expect this to work. Let me know if there is a difference in your console.
