Don't!  There are some mechanisms within Z39.50 to support the specification
of the elements to be returned, but they are really ugly and probably not
implemented by the servers that you want to talk to.

The only reliable mechanism is the Full and Brief ElementSetNames and I
don't even use that.  It's best to ask for the full record and pull out the
elements that you want.

The rules for SUTRS state that there should be a linefeed at least every 72
characters.  That is the only formatting visible in SUTRS.

Hope this helps!
