56,852 Lines of Code

Here are some stats on Dragon Banner's source code,  including the total lines of code to date.  56,852 lines!  It's been a long road.

Lines of code per type.  56852 lines of code.  3613 blank lines (4.9 %).  13696 comment lines (18.5 %).  56852 lines of code (76.6 %).  70 lines in designer files (0.1 %).
It seems 18% is a good number for in-line documentation, as the code is considerably commented.
