Or if you happen to use Emacs, you can invoke `M-x set-justification`,
then type "full", then use M-q to apply full justification on the
region. No ancient scribes required (well, aside from the Emacs
authors). Be warned that it looks kind of goofy on a screen in a
monospace font instead of in a book in a nice variable-width typeface.
Well... it depends on what you
mean by "goofy" -- does it not?

Plain text must always be rendered in monospace font, and
may be justtified by character (rather than by interword
space):

It is bad manners thus to omit the author and newsgroup of
the original message. Online simulators are for whimps, use
the real thing (as I do).

Get Norman Joseph's nawk script. Was printed in that sed & awk book some
years back. Found several copies online.
