[TxMt] right margin indicator

The styleguide says
every line has to be max 80 columns wide.
So it gives me an indication of when to break off the line and start a  
new one.

Also they have banners for every method like this (simplified here):
==================================================
function() {
==================================================
}

and the "lines" should go all the way to the right.
With the indicator I easily know where to end such a line for the  
banner.
(Of course copy/paste of an existing would also give me that result,  
but it is
really good to know if the line has the correct length)

I actually think that lots of people use it like this...?
