BRLTTY and Links - tables

BRLTTY and Links - tables

[Jois]

hi
In certain sites, especially the ones with tables, I have a problem: the
Braille display cuts the lines and I can't read the whole paragraph, and not
only in Links, also in the normal console when, for example, I am reading
from the w command.
My braille display is a Baum Vario 40, with Brltty 3.2 and Debian woody
version.
Let me know
Jois

Links often presents lines which are wider than the screen. You can use the
square bracket keys to scroll left and right.

Some commands, like w, display a variable-length field in the rightmost column.
They chop the field at the right edge of the screen. This means that, even on
the actual monitor, the line is truncated.
