+ * We don't require both stdin and stdout to be a tty, and line
+ * length is primarily a property of output. However, if it happens
+ * that stdin is connected to a terminal but stdout isn't, then that
+ * may well be because the user is trying something like
+ * 'MAN_KEEP_STDERR=1 man foo >/dev/null' to see just the error
+ * messages, so use the window size from stdin as a fallback.
+ * In some cases we may have neither (e.g. if man is running inside
+ * lesspipe); /dev/tty should be a reliable way to get to the
+ * current tty if it exists.
