[Po4a-devel]Over-wrapping po4a progress output

Hello again,

I'd like to express a little wish about the new auto-wrapped output of the 
scripts. While it is really *great* for error reporting, it may be a little 
"ugly" for normal progress output, because the text is unconditionally 
wrapped at column 80, regardless of the terminal size.

If running 'po4a' on many files, parsing and/or grepping its output becomes 
difficult because of the "noisy" wrapped text.

Thanks for your time,
Danilo

P.S: I didn't file a bug because I'm not sure whether this is already in the 
Debian package
