Package: toilet
Version: 0.2-1
Severity: normal
Perhaps I have misunderstood how it is meant to work, but toilet does not
appear to honour the -w/--width option. To illustrate:
$ toilet -w 40 12345678901234567890 | awk '{print length($0),$0 }'

I would have expected the first to be split halfway through, and the second not
to be split at all, but both appear split at the default width of 80 characters.
