It seems hp-ux 7.0 doesn't like terminals with more than 160 columns:
e.g., ls output format is too narrow, vi complains 'terminal too wide'
&c.  I haven't noticed this documented anywhere, but then I haven't
read the manuals from cover to cover, so ...

Is this a feature of specific commands only (which ones?), is there
any way around it, and are there any plans to change this in the future?
