Indeed, 2.21 seems to fix the problem I noticed.

That said, while testing it I made an observation: the text in the console window, no matter how I resize the console horizontally or vertically, always breaks at a certain number of characters (I didn't bother to count).  I had never noticed this before.  Is it normal?  All else equal I'd like to be able to eliminate this hard break, or at least increase the number of characters at which it occurs.
