Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2011 15:47:53 -0700

The *Help* buffer content from `describe-display-table' should be
pretty-printed, or at least wrapped.  Here is an example (dunno how the
mail might wrap this, but the line here is 473 columns wide!

C-l		[10 (32 . 81) (32 . 81) (32 . 81) (32 . 81) (32 . 81) (32 . 81)

What buffer are you in when you get this long line?  I've tried
reproducing the bug, but none of my buffers have a display table like
that.  :-)

To reproduce/test: Download this file, then load it:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/download/pp-c-l.el

Then do `M-x pretty-control-l-display'.
Then do `describe-display-table'.
