Neat discussion (link) Barbara.

I'm still early on in this but looking at the 3 programs all **free so far
only a few lines stretch beyond 100 and only one past 130.
( So maybe QSRC150 would suffice :-) )

What i really like so far, is not worrying about running out past the
right margin anymore!

Code with lines as long as 188 might be difficult to maintain. I find
that 120 is about as long as I can handle easily without having to roll
my eyes side to side too much.

Here's an interesting discussion about line length for source code.
