The *best* solution is to use vi, but that's another issue for another day. *smile* You can use the justify command to fix the line lengths of all the lines of the paragraph you're in. That's control-j. Also the -r command line option when running nano lets you specify how long you want lines to be. So were I using nano for this message I would have used set editor="nano -r72" HTH - -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
