Both languages are free-format so there is no problem here. Anyway, I was
never suggesting that you butcher author's code snippets in order to
fit them into a certain screen size. However, you could come up with 
a requirement for code snippets not to exceed a line length of, say, 72. This 
should render fine in fairly small windows with a readable Courier font. For 
book production, you'll quickly have too long lines anyway (I've hardly seen 
any computer books that'll fit 80 characters of monospaced font on a line 
within the margins).

Asking authors to take a bit of care so that their output becomes better 
usable is hardly unrealistic, I'd say.

(and this is the last thing I'm posting on the topic before we start flaming 
:-))
