Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch.pl: remove the 80 charactes punch card limit
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2010 14:09:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1264597747.3607.29.camel@wall-e> (raw)
The time of 80 characters punch card and terminals are over, so i would
be a good thing to set the line length limit to 120. Every display today
should be able handle this.
