Some are even nice enough to wrap at word boundrys. The one I use (Mutt under unix) does that for displaying, but not for printing. I added some to Mutt's print function to call a unix utility that will break at word boundrys for printing. For those mutt users, I have this in my .muttrc: set print_command="fold -s -w 79 | $HOME/bin/ansilpr -f" Where ansilpr is a shell script that inserts the VT100 print escape sequences ahead of the data and the off sequence after. -- Rich Greenberg Work: Rich.Greenberg atsign worldspan.com +1 770-563-6656 N6LRT Marietta, GA, USA Play: richgr atsign panix.com +1 770-321-6507 Eastern time zone.
