CentOS 6 - fix terminal wrapping

Introduction

I like to resize my ubuntu gnome-terminal window a lot. Unfortunately, it appears base installs of centos 6 do not 'like' this and you can easily end up with wierd wrap side effects. This can include writing over the command you are currently typing, rather than going to a new line. Here is how to fix that:

Steps

yum install xterm -y
Now whenever you resize your terminal window run this command
resize
