Hmm. Neither do I and, in fact, well...I just do it manually. Which I
feel very sheepish admitting because that's kind of ridiculous. But
everybody writing for Gopherspace (which is many people here) must face
precisely this problem, because hard-wrapping is basically compulsory
there. What are other people doing, writing in "long line" form and
then feeding the result to `fmt` or `par` before uploading?
