Code blocks wrap

[steveklabnik]

The guide currently has code sections that wrap: http://i.gyazo.com/8c2ac3f95775dd4847b3f0aae204eaa4.png

These sections are the regular, 100 col length. Rustdoc should make the code blocks wide enough to not let this happen.

I agree, it certainly looks ugly, we should make it scrollable. (Since they violate the rust formatting rules, but they should still be readable).

@rgawdzik I think making them scrollable will look kind of ugly, especially considering that this is the official documentation.
A better approach would be to try to fix the formatting to satisfy rustdoc (or adjust rustdoc itself accordingly).
BTW what is the reasoning behind the 100 column limit? I would expect something closer to 160 these days.

[robertg]

Actually scratch that, those code blocks being cut off are well below the 100 column limit. We should make the styling force the codeblocks to always have 100 columns.

[bluss]

I don't see why you need 100 or 160(!) columns for code written explicitly for documentation, inline in the document. The text is already intentionally flowed in a narrower column than window width to be more readable.

[steveklabnik]

Because Rust style is 100 character lines.

Triage: no change. Tagging E-easy because this should just be a CSS change.

http://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/book/lifetimes.html#examples now contains an example of this, I think the original screenshot is gone now. the line

fn frob<'a, 'b>(s: &'a str, t: &'b str) -> &str; // Expanded: Output lifetime is ambiguous

is 91 characters long, but wraps.

thanks for the example @steveklabnik I am cheking that
