Holy shit! That's 71 characters, which leaves you 9 characters for your code. 4 of that goes to indentation, 3 of that goes to (); and you have 2 characters left for the parameters before you break the 80 character limit. That's horrifying.

OTOH, you do know exactly what it does, without having to read any docs.

I am of course open to suggestions for improvement.

Encourage the adoption of a line-width that is longer than ancient terminals (at least it isn't 40 cols across).

Also I'm much less concerned with absolute line width in my own code than I am with indentation steps or number of arguments something takes without flowing on to multiple lines.
