Your lines above are 79, 79, 75 and 51 characters long. I'd set it at
72 or 74 if I were you, to enable people to quote you easily - I have
it easy, as I use joe that can reformat at my line length (didn't do
it above to show that there are four real lines) and still put a
quote mark in front of every line, but some of us have to make do
with Windows.
