Yeah, it works on the current line. Its a "fix this as you go" kind of
package. I use a red cursor, which goes orange, then yellow, then
white as your line gets more absurd in length. The code is quite
generic. You could get it to flash the screen, make a beep, or with
emacs's new sound facilities, get it to play "Ride of the Valkyries"
progressively louder if you wanted. 

As you can guess it was very wet and miserable one weekend, and I seem
to remember having the flu as well....
