   i forgot to mention that my GUI dimensions are 1600x1200 at this time... this   
   is one reason why i can have such TUI widths... are you running your golded in   
   an xterm in a GUI or are you running it bare in a TUI??

   yeah, don't do that... let the readers' terminals wrap the lines to their   
   widths... only charts and tables are traditionally forced widths less than 79   
   characters...
