Displaying a wide column with psql

People,

I have a table with a field that has up to 1,000 chars in it, when I
look at it with psql it only displays about 200 chars with a "…"
on the end of the string.  Even when I look at just one record and use
the \x option I get the same result - I googled for ages but short of
using pg_dump, I couldn't see an interactive way of seeing the whole
field.  Is it possible?

Thanks,

Phil.
