Splitting Long lines at fixed intervals

[canyonhawks]

I have a long line that I need to split into 4 lines at fixed column intervals.
For instance I need to insert a new line at column 79, 158, and 237.

I tried using a macro to do this and it works sometimes. If there are spaces at the point of inserting the new line textpad truncates the spaces and throws everything off.


ANy ideas?

Any way to specify columns to insert new lines using regex?

Thanks

Replace
^(.{79})(.{79})(.{79})(.)
by
\1\n\2\n\3\n\4

(using Posix for Regex)

Works perfect. Thanks for the rapid response. I'll file that one away.
