OXP auto-adjusts the line-length to whatever I want as I write.  I thought that
process added hard CRs at the end of those lines.

In OXP, a hard CR looks different than a soft CR.

My test seemed to indicate that OXP puts in soft CRs if I don't do it myself.

I was just wondering if the free-flow paragraph would retain the free-flow look
when viewing it with Telegram.  But it does not - therefore, the lines did
indeed have soft CRs.

Oh yeah..  now I remember you showing me a screenshot of that situation. That
must suck.  Is that only when operating in bbs-in-a-pocket mode?
