Yes, my original intent was to pick a specific maximum column for code. I didn't figure out how to both pick a specific width in characters and allow the font to be the user's chosen monospace font, so I made the width 43ems, which works out to 69 characters in my browser. The the `current-display-width` parameter (which `defproc` uses to break lines) is set to 65 to accommodate slightly wider fonts --- but many other things that I write fill 69 columns, because that's what I see when I render the documentation. It would be great to pin this down better. ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
