	Yes, there are several escape sequences that can muck up your line-wrap
-- most obvious candidate is "Autowrap On/Off" (DECAWM) given as
	<esc> [ ? 7 <x>
where  <x> = h  for Autowrap On,  <x> = l  for Autowrap Off; alternate version
of this is  <CSI> ? 7 <x> , where  CSI = CHR$(155_decimal); other offenders
might include the reset sequences DECSTR or RIS, given as
	<esc> [ ! p  or  <CSI> ! p
and
	<esc> c
respectively, which reset default settings on just about everything.
