field width with dpkg -l



    Hey people. 

    Beyond stretching my terminal to it's maximum possible width, is there a
way to control the field width of the display from dpkg -l?

ie. 
[msoulier@tigger msoulier]$ dpkg -l "netscape*" | grep ^i
ii  netscape-base- 4.77-2         Popular World-Wide-Web browser software (bas
ii  netscape-base- 4.77-2         4.77 base support for netscape
ii  netscape-java- 4.77-2         Netscape Java support for version 4.77

    It's cutting off the package names. 

    Thanks,

    Mike
