848095: Reduce the indentation on the help text to improve the layout on smaller terminals.
Created attachment 647778 [details] longer module/option descriptions are unattractive when wrapped [root@jsefler-6 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager subscription-manager-1.1.9-1.el6.x86_64 I think a better fix for this bug is to use the same wrapping logic used to fix bug 864177 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=864177#c4 Fix already committed helped clean it up some, but we do still have some strings that are too long regardless. That's an interesting thought, John, that'd be really nice. BK, would it be super trivial to apply here as well or should I file an RFE for 7.0? lets open up a new RFE for 7.0. Moving back ON_QA based on previous comments. BZ opened for 7.0 to improve wrapping - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=878089 Demonstrating original complaint...
