one argument in favour of 80 is that it's easier to side-by-side diff
even so, I find it restrictive in Java code; once you go for long env vars
in bash-land then you are in trouble. As for python, you have to indent
according to your code flow.

Sun's java code convention (published in year of 97) suggest 80 column per
