wp(1) - the programmer's text formatter. Not another one? Well, this one
is really for programmers. As well as handling normal text it also knows
about comments in programs. For the first time you can edit your comments,
and get them reformatted easily and neatly afterwards. How about changing

/* this is a lump of comment */
/* text that has been horribly hacked about and
/* changed */

into this:

/* this is a lump of comment text that has been horribly */
/* hacked about and changed */

easily? Like it? Then read on. You can handle almost any comment
convention. Of course wp handles normal text as well. It understands
nroff commands (like Berkeleys fmt command), so you can use it on document
input as well. It knows about first and subsequent line indents in
paragraphs (like INed's ffill command) so you won't miss that feature. It
even handles them inside comments.

This program is available for distribution to anyone for any purpose. But
please do me the courtesy of retaining my credit line!

The files here are archived with ARC5.12. The text files are in DOS
format: i.e., each line is terminated with a CR/LF pair. Remove the
CR's on UNIX with sed. The files DOS2UNIX and UNIX2DOS are shell
scripts that convert the DOS file names to the original UNIX ones and
vice versa. Caution: Remove the trailing CR's in UNIX2DOS and DOS2UNIX
*before* running them; otherwise the trailing CR will become part of
the destination file's name.
