Some scripts may create multiple lines which are too long to be displayed on a single line. The widget will not wrap these. In order to wrap them you can use the fold command:
Some scripts may create multiple lines which are too long to be displayed on a single line. The widget will not wrap these. In order to wrap them you can use the fold command:
   
   
-
  command-that-produces-long-lines | fold -s -w 100
+
  command-that-produces-long-lines | fold -s -w 80
The 80 in that instance is the maximum length of the line, which you can change. The -s option makes fold word wrap with spaces. More information is available from the [http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?fold fold man page].
