Some of the lines are wrapped to the left column and others line up with the headers. To reproduce, try id:87wpgjxeia.fsf@nikula.org at about 40 columns. It looks like two different kinds of wrapping going on. About aligning the headers I'm not sure how I feel yet. I probably need to use it a bit to give an informed opinion. I agree it makes the individual headers easier to pick out, but I have some kind of knee jerk reaction to using up space that way. That might be my 1980s VT52 instincts kicking in uselessly though. d
