Not a chance.

ATTENTION DHRYSTONE REPORT FORMAT FLAMERS:
------------------------------------------

Here are some commands, using only 'sed', which will reshape
the Dhrystone results.  There are many other REs and tools
that can also do this job, such as 'cut', 'awk', 'perl',
5 lines of C, and plain old Korn shell.  Instead of flaming,
perhaps you could spend the time to learn your tools.

130 COLUMNS, EVERYTHING BUT DATE AND SUBMITTER:

	sed 's/^\(.\{130\}\).*/\1/' <byperf.doc	| lp

LEFT 80 COLUMNS

	sed 's/^\(.\{80\}\).*/\1/' <byperf.doc	| lp

RIGHT 80 COLUMNS

	sed 's/.*\(.\{80\}\)$/\1/' <byperf.doc	| lp

( If I mistyped something above, don't flame me, just
  RTFM and type the right thing.  We don't need to be
  picking apart these things on this forum. )

I swear this is my last comment on this subject.
I'm happy with the 160 column format, and I do the work.
Now, wasn't that easy.
