[RndTbl] Another Solaris configuration issue - xterm

[Kevin McGregor]

Good call. Now when I log in, TERM=xterm. However when I size the PuTTY
window to 100x55 and type a long command, it still wraps it at 80 columns
back to column 1 on the same line, which is not desirable. The BASH version
is 4.1.11(1)-release, and the environment shows COLUMNS=80 and LINES=65 --
different from before when COLUMNS=80 and LINES=34. Try a different
termtype? Any other ideas?
