Actually, I've found the BSD fmt to be not equal to the GNU or [presumably ATT, since it "works" in Solaris, but that's funny since SunOS harkens back to BSD!] fmt, so the quick fix was to change my .exrc file to the BSD version when I changed servers but that then breaks whenever I pull my environment down to a new (typically Solaris or Linux) box. Rather than muck about with different exrc options, I'll just add fmt to my tree of installed software such as vim -- and since I'll be installing something, I'll just use the much more powerful par instead (haven't done that last step yet :-) But standard, I'm sorry to have found, it ain't. As far as this thread goes, I just leave the line unwrapped. Not only is it my personal standard to not reformat anyone's text, I think it's quite funny when LookOut! breaks a line in the utterly dumbest place, which is often what happens :-) % % kevin HTH & HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
