Both SlyEdit and FSEditor for Synchronet do that now.  The assumption is that the reader should handle line wrapping.  Is there a way to configure the line length for quoting messages in Thunderbird?

I think it's geting more interesting now that Microsoft is developing a version of Windows 10 for ARM now too.  I've heard that version of Windows 10 also has a 32-bit x86 emulator so that you can run 32-bit Intel desktop software in the ARM version of Windows 10.  So it sounds like Intel processor emulation can be done on ARM, at least for a 32-bit Intel processor.  What's also interesting is you might be able to run the ARM version of Windows 10 on an ARM mac with Boot Camp, or in a virtual machine, the same way you can run Windows for Intel on an Intel Mac.
