I would cut the output to fit the width only as a last resort... But COLUMNS is a shell variable, and as such is not automatically visible to processes (AFAIK).

And even then, you won't get actual value if you resize your xterm on-the-fly. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This can be done also in a C/C++ program with the help of ncurses, see e.g. manual page attrset(3ncurses) or wattrset(3ncurses), and the macros A_BOLD/WA_BOLD. Beside this ncurses uses well defined terminal settings. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If it succeeds and doesn't return 0 in the ws_col element, you have your width. 2) otherwise check the COLUMNS environment variable. If it is set and not zero, use it. 3) otherwise assume a line length of 80. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
