Re: [TCLUG:10225] Word wrapping in vi

[sos@skypoint.com (Steve Siegfried)]

I personally use the fmt(1) command.  In vi, you can use it by positioning
the cursor at the start of a paragraph and entering "!}fmt" (without the
double quotes}.  Note this doesn't work in "insert mode".

Hope this helps,
