Why is that website so narrow? It only takes up about 20% of the width of my monitor

Oil is a promising attempt to make a backwards-compatible but progressively better and more sane unix shell. I look forward to trying it out!

About the same as the main page of this site.

I actually quite like it though. Takes less eye movement to traverse along each sentences.

I think it's a mistake, it's due to:

    .skinny {
        width: 30em;
    }

on `body`. To me at least `.skinny` suggests there's a non-skinny style it should be picking up on non-mobile/small screens, but isn't.

edit: Ah, yes, there is also a `.wider` (not being used) at `45em`.

Seems like a very confusing name for a shell, seeing this without knowing the context I saw 'Oil', 'Shell' and assumed that it was about some oil spill or event with Shell Oil that happened in February I was unaware of. Looks like an interesting project regardless.
