A vi question. Please, if you will.

The system:
	NCR 600 
	Unix V.2	Release 2.01.02	
			The editor extensions module is installed.

Many of the vi manuals that I have looked at discuss a command called
fmt. If I understand correctly, this command will reformat a given
paragraph. Also, I beleive that, the command requires a program external
to vi.

Our system does not contain fmt. Since the fmt command is so common, I
assume that it is available in one of archives that a UUNET subscriber
could access. 

Any idea where I could get a copy of fmt? I do not have FTP and have 
not yet figured out how to get at the large data bases available to
FTP users. I do know how to get files off of UUNET, however.

This help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
