You might try a compromise, just spit out all the columns on one line
*unless* either the previous or next column is longer than something
like 30 columns. So if you have a long list of short columns it just
gets wrapped by your terminal but if you have complex expressions like
CASE expressions or casts or so on they go on a line by themselves.
