40 characters is disgustingly narrow. We may need to cut examples to that sort

3/4 of the examples would have to be wrapped because of that. It's a serious
downgrade for anyone reading them on a computer.
It's not that bad. I did it for the Digital Mars C examples.
I just want to make the point that the Phobos implementation code will
necessarily follow a different formatting style than the example code. It's just
a fact of life, and it isn't just for ebooks. Take a look at any programming
book, magazine article, etc.
Vertical space is also at a premium for example code.
