in thread how do I line-wrap while copying a file to stdout?

I think you had it except for the grep command. I'm not sure what that's there for. I have: 
chomp $string;
print join( "\n", split( /(.{80})/, $string ) ), "\n";

    Sorry. For a drop in replacement, you can use: 
    chomp;
print join( "\n", split( /(.{80})/ ) ), "\n";
