Well, you can use fill-paragraph manually, but that requires lines
separated by spaces.

You could also map `do-auto-fill' to a keystroke and use that to
justify lines.

But a better approach would be to define your own latex list environment 
for
program steps and use lists:

#+BEGIN_SRC org
* Example steps:

#+ATTR_LATEX :environment step-list

- step 1
- step 2
#+END_SRC

you could also redefine the default list (=itemize=) environment...
