Truncate instead of wrap

[Virchanza]

If the terminal is too skinny and a line is too wide to fit on the screen, I
want the line to be truncated instead of it overflowing onto the next line.
Is there a simple setting to do this?

Also, if it's physically possible, is there away of resizing the terminal to
make sure that it is of a minimum specified width?

Another little problem. Under Linux, using the terminal emulator that comes
with the Xfce Desktop Environment, if I start my program full screen and
then unmaximise it, the window goes blank and remains blank. Should the
window not be repainted automatically?
