WonderWrap Examples Here are several examples of the reformatting produced by the WonderWrap function. In each case both the original and the WonderWrapped text is shown. In these examples, the Intelquote configuration setting is turned ON. That causes multi-generation quote marks to be condensed when the section is WonderWrapped. To WonderWrap a section, you must first Mark it. Move the cursor to the beginning of the section you want to WonderWrap and hit F4 (Mark). Then move the cursor to the end of the section and hit F3 (Wrap) to WonderWrap it. The marked block may begin and/or end in midline. See the "WonderWrap" section of EZQUOTE.DOC for further information. ================================================================== Original: HJ> DM> GH>This is an example of what happens when the HJ> DM>message HJ> DM> GH>reader software adds the quote marks and then wraps HJ>the HJ> DM> GH>long lines.
