         /W              Wrap messages in source code (default: chop them)

Notes:   The source code is displayed with highlighted ECHOed text,
         comments, quoted strings, redirection, parenthesis and variables.
         A warning message will be displayed if code errors were found.
         Warning messages in the source code are chopped by default, and
         repeated again (wrapped) at the end of the source code.
         A non-zero return code means something was wrong, either on
         the command line or in the source code. A return code greater
         than 1 indicates the last line where an error was detected.
         This program is based on regular expressions, it does not interpret
         the source code; hence false positives cannot be prevented entirely.
         My motto when writing this program was "I'd rather have 10 false
         positives than 1 missed error".
         Use common sense when evaluating the warnings and error messages.
