I am using Notepad++ and need to find a way (a macro maybe) to insert a line break every 79 characters. An important observation is that the line break at the end of each 79 characters cannot be done after a blank space and at the beginning of the other line cannot start with white space.

    Does a find/replace with a regex not work? Test this regex: (.{79}) and have been replaced by $1\n and it worked. I did this test on Sublime Text, but I think it’s similar.
