Salutations, All!

  I hope Victor Yiu doesn't mind that I have already added to his MsgSplit progr
ame :).  I just added a simple wordwrap routine to it that will put in the neces
sary _'s, even in the middle of a quoted string.  Enjoy!

' A great message processor for posting source files.  Converts
' your source files into messages that can be posted in FidoNet
' echos efficiently.  NO MORE PULLING YOUR HAIR OUT when you
' want to post a file!!!

'  MsgSplit 1.00 features:
' ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
' -> Expands "tabs" (CHR$(9)s) into -REAL- spaces
' -> Removes unnecessary white space at end of lines
'      (QB has a VERY nasty tendency to do that if you're not careful...)
' -> Warns poster and reader of lines of over 80 characters.  Helps prevent
'      reader from dealing with much word-wrap problems.  First tries to
'      trim spaces, to see if the line will be then <80 char.
' -> Ability to specify message length
' -> Ability to reserve lines on 1st message
' -> Can directly post to preset BlueWave numbers -- saves me a lot of time!
' -> Great code to study and find out how it works!  (Don't I say that about
'      all my creations?!  <G>)  This program was written/produced/debugged
'      in only 45 minutes!!

'  Main change of version 2.00:
' ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
' -> Will wrap lines for you, adding in _'s where necessary.  Even handles
'      quoted strings!
