If someone really has an 80 character wide screen then, lines with an
IP address will always split up since adr only has space for 4
characters. In the example, those lines are 97 characters long.

Wouldn't it be nicer to not be restricted by teletype conventions from
the 60's and go a little longer?

When I open up the console to my TF2, a character width of 100 only
takes up 2/3rds of the screen.
