What kind of computers do you use to write MonoBook.php? Browsing the source code is too wide for my screen, and no I don't use a VT100 :-) "Snob code width snubs One Laptop Per Child kids". This (inefficiently) finds other long lined files: $ set $(find * -name \*.php) $ for i do perl -nwe 'BEGIN{$a=0} $a=length()>$a?length():$a;END{print $a,"\t"}' $i; echo $i;done|sort -nr
Line length is reduced when we refactor or rewrite code. It's a slow process, but more effective than doing a massive re-shuffle, which causes lots of faux diffs to appear all over the Subversion logs.
It's better now, if not perfect. Marking WORKSFORME.
