To _puts, it should all be one string, from the start to the null byte at
the end. So line length in the source code shouldn't make any difference.
Unless it's trying to scroll, and that's messing it up... But if you're
running it from a clear screen with no menu open, it should have enough
room that it wouldn't have to scroll...
