Sometimes it produces output that is :presented accross the page, other times it produces output down :the page. What logic is it following? When there is space for the output within 80 characters the output is displayed across. When it would need more than 80 characters it displays down the page. I haven't ever tried it on a terminal set to more than 80 characters across. May be it will display across the page up to the with of the terminal. I doubt that though. Even when outputing to a file it does the same thing.
