How to show or display FULL column names?

pstein-JavaNetApr 26 2009 — edited Apr 27 2009
When I issue a command like:

select * from dba_objects;

then some columns are NOT displayed in full width The column e.g. with the heading
LAST_DDL is not the full column name. It must be something like LAST_DDL_DATE

1) How can I show a list of all FULL column names independent from column data?
2.) How can I tell Oracle to make the column as wide as necessary to show the full column name in the heading?
