## 90. wrap

A variant of the convert command. The unique difference is that when a single element is selected, the selected element is given a new parent element.

Example:

"`<simpara>the <emphasis>little</emphasis> girl.</simpara>`"

wrapped in a `<note>` gives

"`<note><simpara>the <emphasis>little</emphasis> girl.</simpara></note>`".

This is different from command convert which can be used to ``morph'' selected element to another kind of element. For example, convert cannot wrap the above `simpara` in a `note` but can morph it to a `para`.

Examples:

    wrap
    wrap [implicitElement] div
