 (adding pipe symbol to show field seperation for clarity only)
 You're using a spell with a short target, I'm not pulling out the lengthy target examples. Target in the old rev I believe takes up three columns. You'd end up wasting space if we placed it back on the 1st line. I'm not crazy about combining the spell name with school, in that case there is a special block and I'd rather leave that be. I haven't seen any spell name in the usual sources that would require additional space. 22:32, 10 February 2012 (EST)

+The extra width was to account for school being included in the same field, working on the basis that 'Name+School' in one field would not need as much space as 'Name'&'School' as two seperate fields.
 Size of columns - has this been determined statistically, or by guesswork? Does anyone have any stats of the min/average/max size of each spell field, across a sample of the most common lst files ?
