+- Don't break code lines too eagerly. We do *not* force line breaks at
+  80ch, all of today's screens should be much larger than that. But
+  then again, don't overdo it, ~140ch should be enough really.

 - Variables and functions *must* be static, unless they have a
   prototype, and are supposed to be exported.
