Duh, don't know what google-fu I was missing last time I looked at this,
but:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9148497/outputting-terminal-to-multiple-columns


I've just written a bloody paginator in shell script.  Gosh I'm evil.

Limitation: it does not work interactivelly. It reads all the output, determines the number of columns based on the length of the longest row, and after an EOF it displays the output.
In case you'd need interaction, emacs follow-mode is better ;-)
