I can't fit two 100-column windows side-by-side on my 28" monitor. I use a fairly large font to keep from straining my elderly eyeballs, but nevertheless, it doesn't work for me.
Also. note that 79-80 chars is good enough for Python and Google: http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#maximum-line-length http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cppguide.xml#Line_Length Are there other things we can do to alleviate some of the wrapping problems? Do you have specific examples of where it's particularly bad?
