Subject: fold -s ... but for more than just spaces
Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2017 14:15:12 +0800

fold -s will break at spaces.
But why not let the user also pick an arbitrary character, other than
spaces, too?
Severity set to 'wishlist' from 'normal' Request was from Assaf Gordon <assafgordon <at> gmail.com> to control <at> debbugs.gnu.org. (Mon, 29 Oct 2018 02:46:01 GMT) Full text and rfc822 format available.
