Good plan

A suggestion. You should change the Label on this checkbox to "Show Vertical Line after column:".

This will then be compatible with the Column value shown in the bottom right pane when the cursor is on the line.

Currently, when 72 is entered the line is shown as being at column 73.

Yes Jeff, I'm pretty sure it began life as a zero.
It's possible that something I did might accidentally have set it to that, though I can't think what.

John,

Did your installation really default to zero? That's an odd default. I'll have to see how that happens. Personally, I think it should default to 72 or 132.

I'd seen that option but, inexplicably, it hadn't penetrated my thick skull that I could change the setting from 0 to 72!

Ah well..

John,

In Editor Options under the Display tab, there is a "Show Vertical Line" option. Does that do what you need?

I've renamed this topic.
It was originally called, Vertical line after column 72

I had asked Jeff this:

In editor options, could a display option be added for this?
I'm sorry I haven't thought of asking for it before now.
