Subj : Read with word-wrap

I want to read in a text string up to 160 characters. Using
console.getstr(maxlen=160) it is stopping at the 80th position (for a 80x25
screen).  Ideally what I'd like to happen is when it hits that border it would
just wrap text.  I've seen this behaviour before on SBBS, but before I wrote
some javascript to try and do it myself I wanted to see if there was a built-in
method I'm just not seeing.

Thanks,

Rob
