My screen is 240 characters wide. It is great to be able to have two
related buffers in side by side windows.
And for long, tortuous functions, I use Follow Mode in three side by
side windows, these being 79, 79, 80 characters wide. This allows me to
view 195 consecutive lines of a buffer at once. This is on a Linux
virtual terminal, on a 1920 x 1080 pixel screen.
Sometimes, I wonder how I ever managed on my old restricted CRT monitor,
which I think went to ~120 characters wide.
