Here is my very wide output:

name | current_setting | source
----------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------
version | PostgreSQL 9.3devel on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Debian 4.4.5-8) 4.4.5, 64-.| version()
|.bit |
application_name | psql | client
client_encoding | UTF8 | client
DateStyle | ISO, MDY | configuration file
default_text_search_config | pg_catalog.english | configuration file
lc_messages | en_US.UTF-8 | configuration file
lc_monetary | en_US.UTF-8 | configuration file
lc_numeric | en_US.UTF-8 | configuration file
lc_time | en_US.UTF-8 | configuration file
log_timezone | US/Eastern | configuration file
max_connections | 100 | configuration file
max_stack_depth | 2MB | environment variable
shared_buffers | 128MB | configuration file
TimeZone | US/Eastern | configuration file

Is there an easy way to wrap the 'version' value to a 40-character width?
