Samantha, we called that blocked, typical mainframe/AS400 behavior. If the 
envelope segments are removed, Sterling terminology is deenveloped.  Wrapped 
and unwrapped terminology that I encountered is as Ron said, CR/LF (Windows) or 
LF (UNIX) after each segment, whether the segment terminator was included or 
not.  I've seen it both ways as far as including the segment terminator before 
the CR/LF.
