I want to read in a text string up to 160 characters. Using console.getstr(maxlen=160) it is stopping at the 80th position (for a 80x25 screen). Ideally what I'd like to happen is when it hits that border it would just wrap text. I've seen this behaviour before on SBBS, but before I wrote some javascript to try and do it myself I wanted to see if there was a built-in method I'm just not seeing.
Thanks,
Rob
