I've spent some very frustrating time with sed to
hack a script which shortens long-">"-headed-text-lines
into [correspondingly more of] shorter-">"-headed-text-lines.

Like:
"> one longer line of 99 chars into two ..
        into
> one longer line of
> 99 chars into two .."

Now I'd like to be able to apply it to marked bloks in
mcedit -- instead of to whole files.

Is this possible/easy?   If so how ?
I think it's related to the existing 'ispell memu
facility', which I'd also like to modify, since
I need to chroot to another partition/installation
to do spell-checking'

== TIA.
