Actually, I think this may depend on context. options(width =...) directly controls only what is described in it's Help file. It does not necessarily control the width of lines in the console or whatever GUI you might be interacting with, nor necessarily the width at which many objects are printed, which is under the control of their print() methods, including defaults. Note, however, many such defaults default to the options value, which may or may not be what you want for them.
