in thread On what column do you wrap your code?

but seriously, personally I like the challenge of WRITING code in less than 80 cols.

Hm, apparently you don't have to work with the naming standards imposed by our Oracle group. When one regularly sees stuff like GENERIC_PRODUCT_PKG.GET_GENERIC_PRODUCT_GENERIC_ITEM_CROSS_REFERENCE_INDICATOR_FLAG with about ten parameters on the procedure, it's enough to make a sane person move to Detroit.

    Egads!!! Here's my suggestion:

    my $FLAG= GENERIC_PRODUCT_PKG.GET_GENERIC_PRODUCT_GENERIC_ITEM_CROSS_REFERENCE_INDICATOR_FLAG;
    my $MESSAGE="GENERIC PRODUCT XREF INDICATOR FLAG EQUALS: ";
    $MESSAGE.=$FLAG."\n";
    print $MESSAGE;

    Of course, it does help if you don't start out with varbind mappings which are > 80 chars...

    Isn't cut and paste a wonderful thing?!
