The standered it that no line is more than 72 letters long, otherwise
it "wraps" on peoples computers.

72 charectors is:

123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012

Anything longer then that line (includeing spaces) causes some people
to have problems.

Before your lines get as long as that line, you need to start a new
line.
