Word Wrapping for Human Beings

People are people too.

Hardly anybody will be interested in this, but I'm posting it anyway. At the very least, this should prove to you I'm not sitting on my hands all the time.

Today, I finally got sick and tired of the old word wrapping program we've been using around the MMN. I wrote it back when I was first learning C, and while it was somewhat fast (compared to some alternatives) it was a little clunky in some spots, and downright buggy in others. (Choked on input texts > 2GB, needed to fit entire text in RAM, etc..)

Like I said, I got sick of it, so I wrote a new one. Go ahead, it's GPL'd, so feel free to use it. It definitely runs fine on Linux and MacOS X and I can't imagine any good reason why it wouldn't run under Windows if compiled with cygwin or MingW.

My program, Wrap, is a bit more featureful than GNU fold, but is a tiny bit slower. (Although the benchmarking process wasn't very comprehensive, so I guess the jury's still out.)
