Subject: [patch] ChangeLog width 74 -> 80
Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2013 15:09:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130618150401.GA24795@host2.jankratochvil.net> (raw)

Hi,

currently ChangeLog has Emacs rule for 74 columns which is also documented at:
	http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/ContributionChecklist
	ChangeLog standard max-line-length is 74.

Plus code comments should be formatted to 72 columns (unwritten rule,
I haven't found it anywhere) and code should be formatted to 80 columns.

One has to reconfigure editor several times a minute, what about unifying
everything to 80 columns (including the comments formatting).  80 columns is
already a narrow column on the left of the screen on displays nowadays.
