1 hi. when i open newsboat in a small window, it
2 fills it with text, and eats the remaining text
3 as expected (so that there is a single news item
4 per line. fine).
5
6 but:
7 1. on arch linux's package, when i enlarge the
8 window, more text automatically shows. nice.
9
10 2. on gentoo linux's installation, when i do
11 the same as arch's, text is still eaten, so i
12 end up manually redrawing the terminal.
13
14 any idea how should i move from here to figure out
15 what's the cause?
