Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Documentation Group: Python 3000 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Jim Jewett (jimjjewett) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: clarify 80-char limit Initial Comment: PEP 3099 says: """ Coding style ============ * The (recommended) maximum line width will remain 80 characters, for both C and Python code. Thread: "C style guide", http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-3000/2006-March/000131.html """ It should be clarified that this really means 72-79 characters, perhaps by adding the following sentence: Note that according to PEP 8, this actually means no more than 79 characters in a line, and no more than about 72 in docstrings or comments. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1628906&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
