I usually set the line length limit to somewhere around 80 so I can have several columns visible at once without wrapping or truncation. So far my magic number is three columns: three code files, or one/two code files with a terminal and/or browser window thrown in the mix. Or any of these columns can be split into two vertically stacked boxes for a total of six things. I’m also a (nonultrawide) single screen coder (after many forays into the multi screen world) which has undoubtedly guided my preference.
