# Lint settings for sol. flake8 is the entry point because it bundles both
# checkers this code cares about — pyflakes for real faults, pycodestyle for
# layout — under one config:
#
#   python3 -m flake8 bin/sol bin/sol-menu bin/sol-spin tools/*.py
#
# The commands have no .py suffix, because they are commands rather than
# modules, so name them directly instead of expecting a glob to find them.

# 79 columns was chosen for punched cards, and this file is prose as much as
# code: the comments carry the reasoning, and rewrapping them narrower breaks
# paragraphs written to be read. 100 is where the code actually sits, with
# room for the handful of lines that genuinely need it.
