Very nice changes.

Agreed. However, everyone had too much fun fighting to get patches done.
Success without going through pain is not as sweet as success after you have
been beat down for a while :) If things were done right from the start, you
would not appreciate it as much, once the job does get done well.

That is only a limitation on Win95/98 (which are just a GUI over DOS and
using DOS's command.com). NT/XP or any newer have cmd.exe which does not
have any 80 column DOS limitation. I usually run at 140 to 160 columns,
depending upon monitor resolution.
