Thanks for all how replied.

I'm still working on how I'm going format all the strange "info" files I've collected over the years.

fold works great for some stuff. fold with sed helps too, but I've got some requirements that seem to require some programming. In my spare time (between feeds with twins) I've been slowly working at it.

If I ever get done with it (about 25% of the way) I'll post my solution here.
