Reviewer's Guide

Adjusts line-wrapping behavior for app descriptions and app name listings by switching from simple width-based wrapping to fmt’s goal width option so wrapped text more closely matches the available column width in menu displays.

File-Level Changes

Change	Details	Files
Use fmt with both width and goal width to improve wrapping of app descriptions and app name lists to better fit UI text columns.	Replace fold-based wrapping of application descriptions with fmt using a fixed width and goal width of 75 characters. Update formatting of the app names column to call fmt with both the computed text column width and matching goal width before columnizing with pr. Adjust heading description wrapping to read lines from fmt configured with both width and goal width equal to the computed text width, ensuring more predictable wrapping in the heading display.	scripts/env_format_lines.sh scripts/menu_app_select.sh scripts/menu_heading.sh

Hey - I've left some high level feedback:

• The switch from fold -s to fmt may change how existing multi-line descriptions are wrapped (e.g., merging intentional line breaks into single paragraphs); please confirm this behavior is acceptable for all current app_description outputs or consider constraining fmt usage to avoid altering paragraph structure where that matters.
• In menu_heading.sh, the here-string invocation fmt -w ${TextWidth} -g ${TextWidth}<<< "${AppDescription}" is missing a space before <<<, which hurts readability and may trip shell tooling; update to ... -g ${TextWidth} <<< "${AppDescription}" for consistency with surrounding code.
