Adding a grammar that matches only the characters after 80 number of characters, and highlight it as going past your limit.</div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px; color: rgba(0,0,0,1.0); margin: 0px; line-height: auto;"><br></div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px; color: rgba(0,0,0,1.0); margin: 0px; line-height: auto;">Below is partially successful. It seems to me that my results are corrupted by some existing scopes. Once I disabled my Fold Guide Grammar the regexp results were dramatically improved. It’s still rubbish as far as commented lines go though. So, from that, I take it that it doesn’t play nice with other scopes, which will surely affect your milage. I tested on various different languages in TextMate and had good success with “Properties”, as it didn’t seem to add many scopes to my document.</div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;
