Any hints how to fix it anyone? The CR character does not do its trick when the line is written over multiple console lines. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=304282#c3 --- Comment #3 from Ján Kupec 2007-09-04 08:08:06 MST --- Hm. 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). How to get it into or read it from zypper? -- 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.

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.
