</div>One thing I haven't seen anyone else comment on is the width of the new<br>
docs. I have a large (26") monitor and use the browser full-screen (with<br>
xmonad, so even more screen space). When I load these pages, particularly<br>
the non-frame one, something like 50% of my screen real-estate is empty<br>
whitespace on either side of the doc content. There is also wasted space<br>
in the frames version, just a little less of it. I wish the docs were<br>
using that space like the current Haddock does. Is the plan to use a<br>
fixed width like this?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes. There's research suggesting that the line length should be between 65 and 75 characters per line.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://psychology.wichita.edu/surl/usabilitynews/42/text_length.htm">http://psychology.wichita.edu/surl/usabilitynews/42/text_length.htm</a></div>
