[issue13107] Text width in optparse.py can become negative

2011-10-05 Thread Adam Byrtek 

New submission from Adam Byrtek adambyr...@gmail.com:

Code snippet from optparse.py:

   344 self.help_position = min(max_len + 2, self.max_help_position)
   345 self.help_width = self.width - self.help_position

Where self.width is initialized with the COLUMNS environment variable. On 
narrow terminals it can happen that self.help_position  self.width, leading to 
an exception in textwrap.py:

raise ValueError(invalid width %r (must be  0) % self.width)
ValueError: invalid width -15 (must be  0)

A reasonable workaround would be to trim part of the help text instead of 
causing an exception.
