Requires: BeOS 5.0+, BeIDE

AGMSWordWrapper is a BeIDE text editor add-on which wraps the selected text to fit in a width of 79 characters. It also understands UTF-8 character encoding, block comments, C style comments, and adds extra space between sentences.

To use it, select the paragraph of text you want wrapped. All the lines that are partially or fully inside the selected area will be wrapped (so you can be sloppy about making your selection).

Examples:

Here are some before and after examples of word wrapping (please adjust the window for viewing this readme file to be wide enough to show the complete lines of text):
