Re:80 chars per line is great by CapitalistCartr on Monday March 25, 2013 @10:31AM (#5437125)
Long ago, I wrote Web pages to be served from OS390. Because it still enforced the 80 char limit from punch cards, I had to adhere to it, also. But no fancy editors for code directly in the machine. And when any line ran over 80, it would only render the first line of HTML. Took me hours to figure that one out.

But I never ran across anything I couldn't make decent inside those 80 characters.
