Well, I definitely disagree that they were refuted rather than only argued against, but it's obvious that we're never going to agree. > This is the time to conclude all that discussion with a simple decision. > Again, clearly some limit must exist because current code editors don't > handle long lines satisfactorily and some contributors want to keep > editing windows less than most or full screen width. > > I think a soft limit (very strongly recommended) of 80 columns and a > hard limit (absolute, forget about merging your code if you don't > observe) of 120 columns would be agreeable to all current and potential > contributors. That's fine with me. What I really don't want to see is a hard limit of 80. And I'll code to whatever we decide. But I definitely would like it if we could just reach a decision on this and be done with it. - Jonathan M Davis _______________________________________________ phobos mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/phobos
