This code:

print 'X' * 140

Shows 2 actual lines with wrap simbol:

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I have screen wide enough to handle 140 character so I woul like to have the string intact and see it as one string. How to set printing width to a custom value?

If you are working in the Sage Notebook, you can click on the left of the output to cycle between line-wrapped output, non-line-wrapped output, and hidden output. Otherwise, tell us more about your setup.

That's a good word, I did forget about this, and maybe it needs to be more widely mentioned.
