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  environment
     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.
