GnuCOBOL's -fixed not quite fixed?

[Bruce Axtens]

I was going to write about -fixed not being fixed but as it turns out that's not the issue at all. The issue is that the unit testing tool we're using, cobolcheck, discretely wraps lines longer than 72 columns. So students on Exercism's COBOL track can (currently anyway) enter lines as long as the UI will permit and never know that they're breaking any rules.

Fun times.
