Text reflow woes (or: I want bullets back!)y

  How can you determine if text is text or source code?  This is text, and this

local opts =
{
  { "c" , "cert"     , true    , function(c) CERT  = c    end },
  { "k" , "key"      , true    , function(k) KEY   = k    end },
  { "n" , "noverify" , false   , function()  NOVER = true end },
  { 'h' , "help"     , false   , function()
      io.stderr:write(string.format(usage,arg[0]))
      os.exit(false,true)
    end
  },
}

if #arg == 0 then
  io.stderr:write(string.format(usage,arg[0]))
  os.exit(false,true)
end

URL = arg[getopt(arg,opts)]
nfl.spawn(main,URL)
nfl.client_eventloop()

is source code.  Both are less than 80 characters in length.

  How do you determine when to wrap and when to reflow?

  I would also like to remind others that not only have I proposed a way to
designate reflow/verbatim text rendering:

(under the SAME suject line, from back in September no less!) but I also
have set up some reflowing tests on my Gemini site:

If anyone would like to test their client for wrapping purposes, this link
might be beneficial:
