    _______________________________________________________

Details:

When running code that will print results on the GUI command window, the
output is wrapped with the wrong column width.

Example:


clear; close all; clc
rand(1, 10)


Screenshot attached.

Apparently, there is room for 8 columns of numbers. The 9th number is printed
off-screen. A horizontal scrollbar is added. I find this output hard to read.
Especially, it is not possible to read at a glance.

Octave CLI as well as Matlab will wrap aroud with the correct number of
columns available. All text is visible without scrolling.
