Yeah, that's because in the usual use case there is no outside terminal.
Passing the size of the terminal if there's one would be probably be a bad
idea as it'd change the behaviour during testing vs real use.
One option would be providing a bogus size (such as 80x24 as getty on
serial does). I'm not sure, though, if it'd do more or less harm than
not providing a size at all.
On the other hand, lesstty in any non-erroneous case will be invoked from
a terminal -- I've thus just changed it to pass the size.
What would be your advice about what data to provide for pipetty?
