Subject: controlling the line length of programlisting

Has anyone tried to use schematron to
enforce the line length of programlisting?
We want to be able to limit the line-length
of our programlistings when we are authoring.
That is, we need to be informed when
a line length in a programlisting exceeds a number of characters (e.g.,
72)
so that we can go in and format the
lines properly. E.g., I'm imagining that this would involve counting the
number of characters before a eol and then comparing
this number against the character limit
(72).
If anyone has an alternative suggestion,
that would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Kate

When the PHP documentations where using DocBook-XSL we used to add a
customization layer to add special "tags" around <programlisting>,
and
then post process the output to syntax highlight and format examples
(php, xml, ..).
For example with <programlisting role="php"><?php..
?></programlisting> the customization layer would generate
"<phpcode><?php.. ?></phpcode>" that was then
post processed with
other applications.
Currently we are using "PhD" (PHP based Docbook Renderer) which
handles all these kinds of things :)
