Auto-wrapping has been considered and wouldn't even be too hard to do, if one could decide where to wrap. With only three columns it would be fairly easy to decide that the one that take more than half the screen should be wrapped. But say you have five integer columns and 6 text columns, when do you wrap? I've been thinking it might be easiest to be able to say "wrap any column wider than <variable>". Setting that to half the screen width would probably work well in most situations... Have a nice day. -- Martijn van Oosterhout <kleptog@svana.org> http://svana.org/kleptog/ > Patent. n.
