* Consistently use "character encoding locale" as suggested by stsp@.
* Resolve various gratuitious wording variations.

Switch (non-curses, non-ksh) programs that use COLUMNS to a single idiom.

Previously behaviors were all over the map. This changes them to
use COLUMNS first, and either terminal width or a hardcoded value
(typically 80) as appropriate.

restore the traditional behavior of -f implying -a; apparently Keith Bostic
...
forgot to restore it when the -f flag was put back on 2nd of September 1989,
after being removed on 16th of August as a consequence of issues getting it
working over NFS, so deviation from traditional UNIX behavior in all BSDs
looks like an historical accident; as a side effect, this change accommodates
behavior of this option to IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (``POSIX.1'').
