[TxMt] Re: Bundle to wrap at x characters wide

[Mathieu Godart]

I have a quick and dirty way to do this:

- Record a macro.
- Go at the beginning of the text with cmd-up arrow.
- Select all text cmd-shift-down arrow.
- Type alt to go to column selection.
- Type cmd-shift-left arrow to select only the first column.
- Type shift-right arrow until (now, it is inelegant) you have  
selected enough columns.
- Type ctrl-Q to reformat.
- Stop the record.

Now, you can save the macro in a bundle.

... I love macros.

Best regards,
Mathieu
