Hey August!

No surprise there.  On a google device there is a configure thingy which has a
section called "Display".  There are four font sizes to choose from on my
particular device.  I switched from default to the largest size but that didn't 
have any effect on the terminal (termux).  I believe it requires it's own
fonts.

In you case I am guessing that it is less than 72 characters given what you are 
saying about it.  Also I am guessing that @Fido2telebot has a hardcoded wrap at 
72 characters (1960's teletype machines).  Judging by what I see at this end
your msg's are fine but definetly look dated.

I'll look up all this stuff if anyone is interested but I doubt I'll ever use
it other than for testing.  I don't have much love for these so-called smart
devices.  To me they look like perfect targets for ye olde sledge hammer.

Life is good,
