In the days when the CRT (not to mention LCD) monitor is using text mode, when the printer is still dot matrix, it is common practice to limit the width of text file to 80 characters, since it is the default width of text mode (25 x 80) screen. The dot matrix is happy to print this kind of text file without wrapping lines.

Nowadays large screen LCD monitors become commodities, the text mode editor is only Linux pedants' favorite. However, from time to time, it is still necessary to stipulate the width of source files to make sure they look all the same throughout the whole spectrum of editors.

lineWidth is a simple tool to check the width of a source file, raising flags for any line that is out of the boundary.
