By selecting "Set Line Width..." QUED/M will wrap the lines at any
character position you desire.

If you need to upload the file to a system that requires delimited lines
you can do that as well with the
Change dialog and GREP--a sophisticated pattern matcher. The grep
expression to search on is the following : :^|:e
(match with beginning of line OR end of document)
and the replacement meta-character is the following: \r
(the meta-character for carriage return, ascii 13)
Then click on the replace all button and your file is ready to upload.

I would also like to mention that the data fork in QUED/M (as well as
Nisus) is purely text, no translation program is needed to make it
text.

A few other QUED/M (Nisus) features that are useful:
-The searching capability allows you to search un-opened files.
-UNLIMITED UNDOS!
-10 editable clipboards.
-Auto save, backup and backup to second source.

In addition QUED/M allows:
-Memory management, displays available memory on menu-bar and allows you
 to purge purgeable segments from the heap.

There are obviously many more features...
