   Hey Nicholas!   
      
    NB> Vim will wrap where you want it to, as well as include the quote   
    NB> character at the beginning of each wrapped line.   
      
   'fold -s -w 67' will wrap with the space at the end of the line, except the   
   last line as shown above.  I tacked in the qoute prefix at the start of the   
   lines using sed.  I've been doing it the way since forever and old habits die   
   hard.  The only issue I had was when I first started using utf-8 characters   
   but that was resolved long before utf-8 became the default for me and mine.   
      
    NB> Hopefully there's plenty of good years left to keep those numbers up.   
      
   Agreed.  As long as I can still care for myself I have no plans to give up the   
   good fight.
