PyBindGen is not fully pep8 compliant

[Jamie Kirkpatrick]

Whilst it is stated that PyBindgen is pep8 compliant, this is not the case. pep8 specifies that lines should not be longer than 80 lines, and there are a huge number in the project that are.

It would be a small change to move towards the standard and would lower the barrier for entry for new participants (silly I know but it really does help when everything is consistent).

If the author is not against this, I would be happy to take it on.

I am not against it. PEP 8 is PEP 8. I may not like everything in it, but it's better to be consistent.
Patches welcome.

[Jamie Kirkpatrick (jamiekp)]

OK, I will submit something when I get a chance...it will be a fairly big patch!

Feel free to use launchpad to its full potential, i.e. create a bazaar clone of the repo, publish in launchpad, make your modifications, and "propose a merge" of your branch into the main one. It's not so complicated as it sounds.

Don't worry, I'm a GitHub user so the procedure is not new on me :)
Good chance to play with Bazaar too...
