For vi , a line is the string of characters between two <RETURN> characters. Although vi will automatically wrap the text onto a new line when it reaches the right-hand side of the screen, it does not insert a <RETURN> character. ... Adding a <RETURN> at the end of every line ensures that the appearance of the text on your screen corresponds to vi 's understanding of how text is structured. Setting the wrapmargin option automatically inserts a <RETURN> character whenever vi wraps text. ...

For an infinitely long circular cylinder, the solution of the light scattering problem for the perpendicular incidence was first derived by Rayleigh [ 418 ] who returned to this problem once again in his last work [ 417 ] written a short time before his death. The problem for oblique incidence was solved in 1955 by J.R. Wait [ 491 ] (Kerker [ 274 ] at p.256 mentions also the paper of Blank, 1955); a bit later the same result was obtained in [ 172 ]). ...
