The estimates this thing gives me are insanely over-enthusiastic. I have a few teeny tiny repositories and only one of mine came out under 100 pages: https://github.com/tomhodgins/quark

If you printed each file to one page, allowing a couple files to span 2 pages, that adds up to 8. I can't imagine a way to print this repository that would need 10x the amount of pages!

thanks a ton err4nt! had actually gone back and noticed an oversight to where I had left out a divisor!

Current formula is: LOC (Based on Linguist's default values) / 64 (which seemed to be about the num of lines that had shown up when opening a given file in print dialog)

With the change, your back at 1 for that repo ;).
