Just did a little experiment in an 80x24 terminal window. . .

* Without '-w' long lines truncated at 80 columns.
* With '-w' long lines wrapped, but truncated about 2/3rds of the way
on the second line.
* With '-ww' long lines wrapped and did not truncate.

One of my mysql processes spanned three lines with the '-ww' option active.
