takes decoder names an example, with the default page length, shell command
'pr' needs two pages for all the decoder names. The names are firstly printed
in the first page, then in the second page. So, as a whole, the names are
sorted neither in column order nor in row order. It's a little confused.

This patch calculates the proper page length, so all the names are printed
in one page, and so strictly in alphabet order, column by column.

There is a report that busybox does not support pr
and we should therefore remove its usage, there is
even an old patch suggestion for doing this, see ticket #5680

Maybe this would be a good moment to do this?

I tried the patch and found it does not work well for print_in_columns,
it just prints all the names one by one, line by line, not in good format. 

I'll send out a new patch for print_in_columns in a better format with printf.
