Easy.  The line width limit is 80, coded in parsemeta.c, which I have
been working on.  It fetches data from port 3521, so just telnet to that
port and you see ...

"Date in Eden Prairie, MN USA is Wed Aug 19 00:49:14 1998 (data spans 34
minutes)"

Which exceeds 80 characters by just one character, when you include the
newline.

I wouldn't worry about it.  ;-)
