NAME
       mflow --	reflow format=flowed plain text	messages

SYNOPSIS
       mflow [-f] [-q] [-w width] < file

DESCRIPTION
       mflow  reformats	the standard input according to	the rules of RFC 3676.
       PIPE_CONTENTTYPE	is  inspected,	making	this  a	 suitable  filter  for
       `text/plain'   messages	 for  mshow(1).	  Messages  not	 specified  as
       `format=flowed' are output unchanged.

       Text is reflowed	(where allowed)	to fit the width given in the environ-
       ment variable COLUMNS, the terminal width, or 80	characters by default.

       If defined, the environment variable MAXCOLUMNS specifies  the  maximum
       line length.

       The options are as follows:

       -f      Force wrapping of long lines.

       -q      Prefix lines with `>'.  Can be used multiple times.

       -w width
	       Set maximum line	length to width.

EXIT STATUS
       The mflow utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error	occurs.
