ReactiveCocoa for a better world

Objective C is smalltalk on top of C. It looks extremely bad when you stick it in the super skinny columnar formats of many blogs.

At 80-300 characters per line it's fine and very readable.

So Objective C programmers can't print code to read it? :-(

What? The blog is displaying the text narrower than it shows up in a source file. This makes it uglier than it is in actual practice e.g.

I got the point, sorry if I was unclear.

My point was, it is hard to print 300 chars wide code. Ideal code width for printing is < 80 chars...

I don't print code, but when I do, it's in landscape mode and wider than 80 characters. But hey, I do this for all languages.

I'm pretty sure I've never printed ObjC

Why would you print code in this day and age?
