[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
In term-mode, when the terminal process supplies more text than can fit 
on a line, term-emulate-terminal puts text into the buffer up to the 
current number of columns, inserts a hard newline, and starts again on 
the next line.

The included patch modifies term-emulate-terminal to just keep putting 
text into the buffer without these hard breaks. This allows one to 
resize the window later and text produced in this way will reflow 
dynamically, which is very convenient for most programs I run, avoiding 
new awkward soft line breaks when the window becomes smaller later.

        * term.el (term-suppress-hard-newline): New customizable
        variable.
        (term-emulate-terminal): Don't add hard newlines when
        term-suppress-hard-newline is non-nil.
