It would be really nice if the fmt program were to honour the COLUMNS
environment variable (c.f. the resize program) as its default for the
--width parameter.

Anyway, thanks for a tool that'll make it *so* much easier for me to
maintain help message output from scripts without having to
laboriously massage the formatting :^)
