[comp.unix.questions] How to do line feed on document

colemans@tramp.colorado.edu (COLEMAN SEAN) (02/02/91)

Help!!!

I was using textedit on a sun and unfortuantly, got lines that were
too long to print. Some lines are actually 13 lines long. ( 80 character
lines).

Is there a way using vi to cut the line automatically at 80 characters
without having to go in by hand and add line feeds.

Is there any unix tools to do this?


Thanks

If there are no characters in document which may be interpreted by nroff, just
use

	nroff  infile >outfile
