I'm waving my hand here.  (Don't you see? :-)  I run vi in 132 column
mode when I'm editing wide files.  (Our L.sys file for instance.)  After
a day in 132 mode, 80 column mode looks really strange.  It seems like
a terminal that scrolls sideways wouldn't be much more useful than the
standard 80 column mode with wraparound.
