Hey August!

Yes there is.

Above is 72 wrapped.

Above is 64 wrapped.

I've been doing 72 wrapped for quotes.  Also, these are 72 multibyte characters which when deployed are likely to get screwed up when doing bytewise wraps where one character = 1 byte.  Hence my use of the word "dated".

Life is good,
Maurice
