|     knotty: Make sure getTerminalColumns() returns two integers

to the scarthgap branch (2.8).


Without at least one of them, knotty is heavily broken on Fedora 43.

Even if this issue is addressed, there could be problems with python-3.14 on older releases. Yoann agrees to try it and see how it goes.
