Excellent. ++Abigail once for the whole thing and once each for 30, 31, and 32.

Of course, I don't follow all of those guidelines but most of the ones I don't are cosmetic.

• I don't use whitespace between indices.
• I cuddle my elses.
• I don't use whitespace around the ->, ++ and -- operators.
• I prefer either foo($bar) or foo( $bar ) to foo ($bar)
• I use Getopt::Std and eschew long options. I do provide -h and -V for usage and version banners though.

This is just a first draft. I've probably forgotten some rules.

How about your guidelines for breaking long lines?
