# fold
> Folds long lines for fixed-width output devices.
> More information: <https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/fold>.
- Fold lines in a fixed width:
`fold --width {{width}} {{path/to/file}}`
- Count width in bytes (the default is to count in columns):
`fold --bytes --width {{width_in_bytes}} {{path/to/file}}`
- Break the line after the rightmost blank within the width limit:
`fold --spaces --width {{width}} {{path/to/file}}`
