Hello Nicholas Boel!

 NB> I'm using a format=flowed supported newsreader right now.
 NB> All of my text goes to the right edge of the window, and
 NB> when I resize the window the text rewraps.

 NB> This doesn't happen in OpenXP as of yet. Same exact
 NB> message, no CR/LFs at all. It always wraps before 80
 NB> columns. The only time it goes further is if there is no
 NB> spaces in the line (for example, a long link).


Ah.. correct.. there is no free-flow option in OpenXP's editor.  
There just seems to be a hard max and min range to choose from.

Again... maybe someone can address the issue looking at the  
source code?

Personally, I like shorter width lines.  This one is going out  
set to a max of 63 chars.  Meanwhile *some* kind of limit is  
necessary for quoted text otherwise there wouldn't be much room  
for adding the QQ>> QQ> etc pre-text.
