mypy output truncated in "pretty" mode

[tlambert03]

when using pretty = True in my [mypy] config... the output in the information window is truncated. Easy enough to just not use pretty mode... but is there a way to still have pretty mode for terminal usage?

@tlambert03 unfortunately we don't have a specific feature to handle this for mypy. Maybe there's a way to override it on the command-line using python.linting.mypyArgs?

Otherwise this will hopefully be solved when we get to #1577 .

ok, thanks, no worries. wasn't sure where the appropriate place to put that observation was...

I ran into this problem as well. Seems like more of a VSCode problem
