Hello Andrew, >> When "soft" line wrapping is on, rewrapping function is not available >> because it requires "hard" wrapping points.
> Hmm... Why can't it be mixed? Because you can either have soft line wrapping or hard, but not together. We're still thinking of future extending functionality when soft wrapping is used, like supporting format=flowed for output, block re-formatting aka joining short lines into long paragraphs, but this is not exactly what you're after, I guess. However, there is still an option to switch soft wrapping off in the preferences, but it won't work on-the-fly, i.e. one will need to reload the editor. > For example, your message above is occupying a single line, no `lf` at the > end. > I would expect that selecting it and pressing a hotkey (ALT+L was the > default) will re-format to 78 characters as per RFC.

There is no RFC about it ;-) IIRC, the only RFC that limits characters per line is 822 (obsoleted by 2822), but it's about transferring messages, not the actual text line in a message. The limit of 78 characters comes from 80x25 characters standard text resolution of prehistoric displays, but I have no idea what it has to do with modern display resolutions and software... > Is there an alternative way to keep letters within 78 chars in v9.2.2.9? Yes - just switch soft wrapping off and you will have the old MicroEd functionality. -- Best regards, Stefan Tanurkov
