Easy. 
I am using tabwidth 4, so it is sufficient to make sure that lines 
do not get cut off on the right when using tabwith 4.

If you hadn't used the smiley I'd probably say that sometimes it is 
of great advantage to _think_ prior to posting. :)

Because even if I can zoom my editor to width >=160, I prefer to 
be able to have 2 to 4 windows non-overlapping on the same screen. 
And because I do not want lines to get cut off at the right (too 
dangerous to overlook something), I need to use some horiz. limit. 
(Because I do not like folded lines.)

But I'd prefer not to discuss indention and window sizes but isosurface 
accuracy instead. Did anybody with some more isosurface experience 
and aproptiate test scenes on the hd have a run?
Even if, from my presence on this news server, I deduced the rule of 
thumb that "no response is good response".
