> When some option has a really long description (at least 3 lines), it wraps
> incorrectly. See attached picture, it's a total mess.
> The problem is, you have default width set to 74 characters. But when you are
> printing the second line of the description, you forget to count also the
> preceding white space into the 74 characters. Therefore the second line wraps
> into a third line. After all 74 characters are printed, you start again on
> fourth line with a correct preceding white space. And over and over again.
> This fix should be really easy. Just count the whitespace.
