I must bring this back into discussion because it seems the recent traffic in the matter left the impression that "anything goes".

We have a pull request (https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/27) with at least one line that is 195 characters long and others of comparable lengths.

I think as far as presenting arguments the ship has sailed. Let's now agree on a maximum line length. What should that be? 80? (Yes please.) 100? 120? Give me your vote for a number, but please let's avoid reviewing telex rolls going forward.

The longest line is actually 408 characters long. Ouch.

I'm firmly in the 80-char camp. That said, I'm not a Phobos contributor,
so perhaps I should keep my mouth shut (or my fists clenched, or whatever
the equivalent is for typing).
