come to the aid of their

Country.

This would convert into:

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their Country.

URL Crunching

The third mode supresses the additional spaces that are usually added in place of the linebreaks.  This is called the "URL Crunch" feature.  Look at the example above. As linebreaks were removed, spaces were inserted.  Otherwise you'd have "allgood" instead of "all good".  That's great for text, but lousy for URLs or other strings that don't benefit from the additional space.  Just hold SHIFT, and the extra spaces are suppressed.  Allowing you to wrap
