Hi Rocky,
In general if you resize your terminal view, that width is announced to the remote.
Have you installed the latest Terminal from the Marketplace?
http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/tm-terminal
Regarding the “long lines overlap” I seem to remember some bugfixes not too long ago, which might affect that behavior. Among other things, the Terminal now
announces “xterm” compatibility to the remote rather than “ansi” ; this helps knowing which lines are actually wrapped. Thus when you resize the Terminal, wrapped lines may get unwrapped again.
If this doesn’t help, there’s ways getting a protocol of the Terminal/remote communications to reproduce.
Let us know how it goes !
Thanks,
Martin

Subject: [tm-dev] Setting terminal width
Is there a way to change the width of the terminal? I noticed that some longer shell commands tend to overlap, overwriting the first part of the command. I experience this on Luna SR1a.
