It's the following option (I'm using 2.4.35 in Cygwin - The distro hasn't been updated to .39):

-o ldif-wrap=no

-AWJr

Would someone be willing to share the option?  I’m looking at the 2.4.23 man page in CentOS 6 and I don’t see an option to not wrap lines.  I’ve always unwrapped lines with perl but it would be handy to do it directly in ldapsearch.

thanks,
