We have been using "terminal width 80" with RANCID for years.  Works
fine, but then we only have Cisco boxes.

Personally I think either 0 or something in the range 72-80 would be
best, generating either short and machine-readable or human-readable
diffs.

And yes, it would be great if this could be parametrized somewhere,
possibly within some hook for specifying device-specific commands,
along the lines of Ed Ravin's suggestion in message
<20080530133226.GB4452 at panix.com>.
