How difficult would it be to allow a longer RealName Pattern? The maximum length currently is 128 characters.

I used 117 just to get "Mr. Brian Lewis" ([user:profile-teacher:field-name-salutation] [user:profile-main:field-name-first] [user:profile-main:field-name-last]) and had thought about adding other info. I know this isn't a high priority, but when this module is used with profile2, a lot of the characters are taken up by "profile-main" or "profile-teacher".

I just thought I'd ask, and see what kind of response I get.
Thanks in advance!

That's probably reasonable to allow the pattern to be longer.

Other than missing a CHANGELOG.txt message (there is no CHANGELOG.txt file to add one to), here's a patch.

I like even numbers, so I went with 256 as a maxlength (since this is stored in {variable} we don't technically have a limit), but I still gave you credit for the patch Damien. :)
