    Fold (Unix)

    Fold is a Unix command used for making a file with long lines more readable on a limited width terminal. Most Unix terminals have a default screen width of 80, and therefore reading files with long lines could get annoying. The fold command puts a line feed every X characters if it does not reach a new line before that point. If the -w argument is set, the fold command allows the user to set the maximum length of a line.

    Example

    As a usage example, to fold a file named file.txt to have a maximum of 50 characters per line, one could run the following command:

  • file.txt:
  • output:

    Fold (geology)

    A geological fold occurs when one or a stack of originally flat and planar surfaces, such as sedimentary strata, are bent or curved as a result of permanent deformation. Synsedimentary folds are those due to slumping of sedimentary material before it is lithified. Folds in rocks vary in size from microscopic crinkles to mountain-sized folds. They occur singly as isolated folds and in extensive fold trains of different sizes, on a variety of scales.

    Folds form under varied conditions of stress, hydrostatic pressure, pore pressure, and temperature gradient, as evidenced by their presence in soft sediments, the full spectrum of metamorphic rocks, and even as primary flow structures in some igneous rocks. A set of folds distributed on a regional scale constitutes a fold belt, a common feature of orogenic zones. Folds are commonly formed by shortening of existing layers, but may also be formed as a result of displacement on a non-planar fault (fault bend fold), at the tip of a propagating fault (fault propagation fold), by differential compaction or due to the effects of a high-level igneous intrusion e.g. above a laccolith.

    This Too Shall Pass

    by: Fold

    Misery bangs at your front door
    My arms are not so strong to swim against this anymore
    But I don't claim to have this figured out
    Maybe the difference is in that, maybe I'm starting to
    see it
    You've got me in your peripheral vision
    You'd rather have me in your rear view
    At times things don't go as expected
    May I have your attention?
    Meet me again behind front lines
    Outside my window I can see the leaves have changed
    But my heart is constant
    I don't claim to have this figured out
    Maybe the difference is in that, maybe I'm starting to
    see it
    You've got me in your peripheral vision
    You'd rather have me in your rear view
    At times things don't go as expected
    What were those words that you said?
    And may the road rise to meet your feet
    I know you are tired, but don't admit defeat
    You've got me in your peripheral vision
    You'd rather have me in your rear view
    At times things don't go as expected
    May I have your attention?
