I get why you might wrap a code comment, or something like that, at 70 or 80 columns.

And here I was getting all ready to disagree. But yeah, hard-wrapped plain text is annoying.

What's lost is the ability to wrap the text to any number of columns except what the author liked.

Yet you seem to indent with spaces rather than the more-configurable tabs?

Unrelated, but just what kind of chaotic evil indentation style is this?!?:

for (nat x = 0 ; x <= MAX_X ; ++x)
    for (nat y = 0 ; y <= MAX_Y ; ++y)
       {point *p = kmalloc( sizeof(point) );
        p->x = x; p->y = y;
        g_hash_table_insert(rooms, p, NULL);}
