LISTER()

  Short:
  ------
  LISTER() Build, format,print SIMPLE lists to
  printer,screen,file

  Returns:
  --------
  Nothing

  Syntax:
  -------
  LISTER([aNames,aDesc])

  Description:
  ------------
  A menu driven utility for creation, printing and
  storage of list definitions.

  The user is asked to pick the fields to be included
  on the list. The selected fields, in the order in which
  they will be listed, are shown in the bottom information box.
  The user may select which records are to be included in the list -
  all records, query matches or tagged records.

  The user may select output as PRINTER, SCREEN or
  FILE, and choose the maximum line length to avoid printer
  wraparound.

  The user may save list definitions to PLIST.DBF and
  later restore them.

  Two arrays may be passed - fieldnames [aNames], and
  field descriptions [aDesc] Pass both or none. Normally, field
  names are used as the column headings for the list, but if
  [aDesc] is passed, these descriptions are used in the column
  headings of corresponding fields.

  By default, all fields are used, field names are used
  for descriptions.

  Examples:
  ---------
   USE CUSTOMER
