When editing with vi is there a "paragraph reform" capability similar to 
Control-b in Wordstar?  If I insert a sentence or otherwise garble the 
line length I'm only able to fix it manually by inserting carriage
returns at the proper places thru the end of the paragraph.  Suggestions
as to a better way would be gratefully appreciated.
