So this is about avoiding `called-interactively-p'? If so, I think an
argument is indeed the way to do that.
Another solution would be to have one function meant for interactive
use, and another one for use from Lisp. That might be too much in this
case, though, as this function seems somewhat uncommon.
A third one would be to do nothing, and say: it's up to the caller to
just call (message "") to clear the echo area, if they don't want the
message there.
But actually, isn't the way to truncate lines just to say this?
(setq truncate-lines t)
In summary, I don't think I understand the use-case here.
