> So what do others think about source lines over 70 columns?
Enforcing a maximum length of 70 characters seems awfully low to me.
It's fine if someone decides to use 70 characters for his comments,
of even his code, but I think that 76 or 78 would give better results.
I even allow myself to go up to 80 when splitting a line makes it
particularly ugly and hard to read...
