If I enter:
alias greet 'echo Hello, $USER'
and then enter:
functions greet
it outputs:
# Defined in - @ line 0
function greet --description 'alias greet echo Hello, $USER'
echo Hello, $USER $argv;
end
Why does the generated function output $argv?

The reason is that very low sizes are two things:
* Don't work with fish.
* Often a terminal error.
Terminals that fail to report their size are not unusual. An easy way to
head off both problems is to use a default size (to mis-represent) when
it's likely that the terminal is lying to fish. Note

Does fish behave better when the width is less than 20 to pretend that
the width is
