I have an MP4 player which can display e-books but only as text files (.TXT).

I have software to convert files to that format but, unfortunately, the converted files do not wrap properly on the screen. Instead of line breaking where a line is too long for the screen, words continue across the screen edge, so that the first few letters are on one line and the remainder on the next.

I want to format the files so that they suit the screen width i.e. line break every 30 characters.

I've tried numerous text editors to no avail. Any ideas?
