No, thankfully. That is the wonderful thing about TB editor, it does
not change or reformat anything after you hit send. What you see is
what you get.
Your solution is:
you don't need to highlight anything in order to re-format long lines.
Just switch the Auto-format on by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+F, and then
insert a space anywhere inside the long line and again delete that
space using the backspace key. The long line will instantly be
re-formated to the proper line length.
The same thing works for quoted long or straggling lines! This sort of
auto-format (automatic re-flowing of quoted text from previous emails)
is a magnificent feature of The Bat, something that *instantly* made
me abandon Outlook and choose The Bat.
A RELATED WISH: Please, RITlabs, let the Status Bar in TB editor show
us whether AutoFormat is currently switched on or off.
