Description kalle1 2017-12-22 23:51:16 UTC 
Long output lines which are spanning more than one line in the terminal can make it hard to navigate through the output using scrolling if the line is extremely long. Consider a few 100KB up to a few MB of a base64-encoded screenshot which can often be encountered in integration tests prepared to run on headless CI services.

It'd be nice to be able to collapse those lines and re-expand them at wish like it's possible for commands like `--- exec-maven-plugin:1.5.0:exec (default-cli) @ mavenproject1 ---` already.
