The spac- ing at the beginning of the input lines is preserved in the output, as are blank lines and interword spacing. Fmt is meant to format mail messages prior to sending, but may also be useful for other simple tasks. SEE ALSO Mail(1), nroff(1), roff(1) AUTHOR Kurt Shoens BUGS The program was designed to be simple and fast - for more complex operations, the standard text processors are likely to be more appropriate. > On 29.
