Or fix the Motif text widget.  The Athena text widget supports
auto-fill.  It's a very commonly needed feature.  Why doesn't Motif
support it?

Or use xrn's approach -- it will optionally format a message *after*
the user has finished composing it, to wrap long lines.  See the xrn
man page for more information.
