Yes. Another very effective way to get your code below 80 characters
is to shorten all names to a single letter. Since you don't need to
restrict yourself to monocase Roman letters (as I had to in my
earliest programming days, in BASIC), it's actually quite practical to
uniquely name everything in a single character; you could save
enormous amounts of horizontal space. Then, aggressively "import as"
to do the same with remote symbols (you might need two characters for
those), and you'll be able to write everything in just a few tight
symbols!
