It does in any program. Just enter your LF manually. It's not complicated, I do this in vim all the time to keep the linelength in check. There's also https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1855 which asks for a max line length of 65. Yes, I don't follow this exactly either, I'm using a max. linelength of 72 typically, but at least I *do* add my LFs manually, out of courtesy to my readers. And yes, there are still folks out there using text-only MUAs like mutt in an 80 columns terminal. I do. > I don=E2=80=99t see the problem anyway. One unbroken line per paragraph = is trivial to wrap in software, and then you get breaks where *you* like th= em, rather than where *I* like them. You're lucky. You never had to reply to your own mails. I do and it's seriously ugly to see and edit mails with extremly long lines in vim. To be able to add a comment after a single sentence, one has to manually break your lines for you from inside the editor. So instead of just using linebreaks out of courtesy to allow others to comment on your mails easily, you push the onus on the recipient. Bottom line is, it just isn't fun to reply to those mails, so I do it less and less often.
