`young gun` here ;)
i was born when Intel Pentium was introduced.

im ok with legacy style but i feel now a days screen have grown bigger.
and as of screen in 2014, pixel is preferred over chars for calculating size.

geany has a green line after 72 char, so, i usually use it for breaking up.
no "X x Y crt's" are mainstream, so possibility relaxing is a better idea. (and afaif, dropping isn't that good idea)

I'm getting closer to being "done" with my rcc fixup stuff and thought I would run 'make stylecheck' to start ensuring its style compliant. Clearly this hasn't been run in a while :-)

One of the challenges has been that descriptive flag names (for example:
(RCC_PLLCFGR & ~(RCC_PLLCFGR_PLL_MASK | RCC_PLLCFGR_PLLSRC)) )

are by themselves nearly 80 characters and stylecheck urges lines of 80 characters or less.

I am totally ok with breaking up lines to keep them under 80 chars (I grew up programming on 80 x 24 CRTs) but given that pretty much none of the 'young guns' today seem to care is that a style standard we really want to enforce?

Thoughts? Opinions?
