Re: Proposed patch - psql wraps at window width



This patch is blocking other work -- for instance, the PrintTable API
and two patches that depend on it.

Could we get the main hunks committed soon, with the policy bits
stripped out?  That way, discussion on the behavior can continue until
we reach an agreement, and others can work on other patches.

("Policy bits stripped out" could mean selecting the wrapped behavior
only explicitly and selecting the column width only on a \pset variable.
All the hard bits about when to use $COLUMNS and the ioctl(), which are
the controversial parts, can be deferred and are pretty localized
changes AFAICS.)
