Hi,

I understand that the text is actual output but if you generate the pdf
documentation you will see that the fixed width text goes off the page.
So some sort of compromise is required and wrapping the text is what
is usually done in the DPDK docs.

Since it may be confusing to the end user if they see different output
in the docs and on the console it is probably worth adding a line in the
preceding paragraph to say something like "(text wrapped for clarity)".

John.
