From the peanut gallery: I find the use of the word "fold" (especially in the
Unix / Linux world) somewhat ambiguous.
Some people / contexts seem to mean the breaking of a line into shorter lines
by the addition of line ends (trying to remember the right word) -- sort of a
permanent change to the text.
Other people / contexts seem to mean the ability of some software (typically
some text editors / word processors) to hide portions of the text, leaving
(typically) only one leading line and some kind of marker (typically in the
left margin) that can be clicked to reveal the text that was hidden. (Leaving
a different marker than can be used to re-hide the text.)
Still other people may mean simply the ability (of some software) to wrap a
long line that would normally stream off to the right so that it appears as
multiple lines in the "normal" view (to the right of the screen), with no need
to horizontally scroll (to the left) to view the remainder of the line.
Which do you consider the proper behavior re headers in kmail?
