 Sorry, I meant around 80 characters, which is the standard UNIX terminal
 width.

 I'd prefer that to be honest.

 about whether your implementation strategy is (a) standard and/or (b)
 clever. Is it something that is usually done?

 idea.  After a quick look around google, here's one example:
 http://algo.inria.fr/seminars/sem00-01/lecerf.html I'll take a look for
 more complete references too.

 Have you compared the speed with, say, Magma?
