Hmmm.  I've worked at two companies where it was part of the coding
standards that you never put more than one statement on a line.  Of
course, in C it's possible to cheat:

	i = 1, j = 2, k = 5, m = 12;

The above is technically one statement.

Perhaps it's really the Mac's small default screen that's your problem?
I never had a reason to cram statements onto lines when I was using a
48- or 60-line terminal (or emulator), but at 24 lines it's perhaps
desirable.
