Hi All,

Ok, interesting problem that i will try to explain :)

When I pipe a command to a file (e.g dpkg -l > /tmp/dpkg.output), the
output seems to only use 80 characters instead of my default 110 set by
stty. This only seems to occur when running the command on another host
via SSH, when i run the same command locally, columns seem to be fine in
the output.

Now when I run 'stty --all' from both machines, I get the same output,
specifically columns 110. 

How do I get piped output to use the same columns set in stty over an
SSH connection? Is this an SSH problem or stty?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

Shane.
