https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming_languages does not
even have a column for fixed versus free format.

Modern? Other than assemblers, COBOL and Fortran, what was the last language
that you saw with column dependencies?

FWIW I would love that feature but I have never solved that on Notepad++. I
wanted to make just column 72 display red so (a.) I would know if I crossed
the line and (b.) I would know if I had my continuation character in the
right place.

Most of the modern languages seem to be free format. There seems to be
little support in modern tools for column dependencies.

Thank you all for your responses. I suppose UNNUM it is!

One last Visual Studio question: is there a way to display a
delimiter/margin line after column 72, so that it's easy to visual discern
when I've "crossed over the line"?
