I don't understand. You have an input file that contains one line of 744 characters with no field or line delimiters other than a possible trailing <newline> at the end of the file. You want a program to split this into variable length lines and you title the thread "word warp does not work". Please explain what this has to do with word wrapping and what program it is that you believe is not working correctly.
