- Wrap each line to default width (80 characters):
`fold {{path/to/file}}`
- Wrap each line to width "30":
`fold -w30 {{path/to/file}}`
- Wrap each line to width "5" and break the line at spaces (puts each space separated word in a new line, words with length > 5 are wrapped):
`fold -w5 -s {{path/to/file}}`
