You can use TF if you wish <!-- m -->http://www.autohotke...lib.htm#TF_Wrap<!-- m -->
(no need for a loop, just a RegExReplace will do, TF will save you the read, adjust, save trouble)

I tried TF.ahk and it didn't turn out right:
Notice how after "sword.", "the", "right.", and "luck." there's an extra line and a " " was inserted. I can't have extra spaces added to my txt file.

I think that has to do with the `r`n carriage return/linefeed chars. Take a look at this example and if you comment text:=Re... line you can see the difference
text=
(join`r`n
A
dragon is here.
Take this
sword.
Good Luck.
bye
)
text:=RegExReplace(text,"\r?\n", " ") ; comment this to see the difference
MsgBox % RegExReplace(text,"(.{2})", "$1`n") So you could try to replace all `r`n with a space and THEN wrap it to get the results you need.
