#16 width of terminal window is not taken into account

[Max]

I'm using ysmICQ 2.9.6 in wide X-windows terminal (of
width more than 100 chars). In spite of that ysmICQ
cuts all outgoing message at length 63, e.g. it shows
outgoing messages like

ON> m Somebody my long outgoing message .... bla-b$

while there a lot of space left at the end of the same
line.

I also vote for an option to disable such cutting and
let the outgoing messages spread over as many lines as
needed.

Hi Inpet!

Thanks for your report. I'm closing the issue though as I
believe the following will help you overcome the situation.

You don't mention what input library you are using (ysmICQ
supports two, readline and getline, getline is bundled
with ysm and readline is used if the library is installed).

Given your output and that the line finishes with a $
character, I believe you're using getline.

I'd recommend you to install readline in your system and
refer to ysm's documentation in order to get readline
working (it should compile with readline support right
away if the library is found).

readline shouldn't have the problems you mention.

I hope that solves your issue and once again, thanks for
your great comments and support.

Regards,

With readline, there is a similar problem.

It scrolls the entered test to the left. So when I send long
message it shows the following:

<...the end of my very long message.

Moreover, the end of this line is at position 80 despite
that the width of my terminal is more than 100 chars and
there is still plenty of space at the right.
