To report a bug...

• What command(s) did you run?

The following script, in an 80-character wide terminal

#!/bin/sh -ex

# Set up a temporary empty TaskWarrior working environment (and delete when script ends)
d=$(mktemp -dt twtest.XXXXXX)
trap 'rm -rf "$d"' 0 INT TERM QUIT
touch "$d"/.taskrc
export TASKDATA="$d"
export TASKRC="$d"/.taskrc

x=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
task add "$x\n$x\n$x"
task add "$x\n$x"
task add "$x \n$x\n$x"
task next 1
task next 2
task next 3
task diag

• What did you expect to happen?

All three tasks would display without issue.

• What actually happened?

The first task, which had two lines of long description only separated by a newline, and no spaces, caused an error that the report was too wide. Truncated/tidied output:

$ task add 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\nxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\nxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
Created task 1.
$ task add 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\nxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
Created task 2.
$ task add 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx \nxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\nxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
Created task 3.
$ task next 1

I suspect this may be fixed by #2249, and may be the same error as #2148 and/or #2260, and maybe #2023?

Ah, I've just done a build of 2.6 from source, and the problem isn't reproducable there, so I guess it's been fixed :)

@xtsm or we regressed back to incorrect behaviour :( thanks for bringing this to our attention!
