Build Identifier:

depending on the windown size the monetdb status replaces too long string by dots in which case you can't read the info.
Also not practical when reading the lines with dots from scripts

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1.set window width small
2.monetdb status
3.

Actual Results:

name state health remarks
...0 R 9h 100% 0s mapi:monetdb://rocks096.scilens:50096/cycle0_100x10000

Expected Results:

   name        state   health                          remarks

cycle0_100x10000 R 9h 100% 0s mapi:monetdb://rocks096.scilens:50096/cycle0_100x10000

or something similar...

Changeset 8ca402652831 made by Fabian Groffen fabian@monetdb.org in the MonetDB repo, refers to this bug.

For complete details, see http//devmonetdborg/hg/MonetDB?cmd=changeset;node=8ca402652831

Changeset description:

monetdb: don't compress output when not connected to a terminal

- check stdout for its size (since we're writing there, we don't care
  about reading end -- may as well be completely different in case of a
  pipe)
- don't compress output when we didn't find a terminal width (0),
  addresses bug #3292, now scripts should get full output
