Hi Can you turn on/off horizontal scrolling? At the moment, my lines wrap to the next line. I know its indicated that its the same line, but id prefer it to scroll, if possible? Thanks Eoghan
Turn off 'Soft Wrap' Command-Option-W or in the View menu. On Jan 26, 2005, at 9:57 AM, eoghan wrote:

Speaking of wrapping lines, I'd like to ask again for "hard wrapping" to be implemented... (i.e. inserting \n at the end of each line when wrapping).
Allan?

The answer is the same as on December the 16th. It's on the to-do, but not with a high priority. I don't consider hard wrap very useful w/o automatic reflowing of paragraphs, and this is more than a five minutes job.

More useful and maybe easier to implement would be "hardwrap on save", where everything currently soft-wrapped is hardwrapped when saved into the file. Of course I guess it would still need a counterpart 'unwrap on load' to really work :p.

You can workaround by using a command like fmt(1) or par(1) on the document or a selection but it is more cumbersome than just typing and the editor DTRT.

Well, there's also ctrl-f to reflow (and you can unwrap a paragraph with option-ctrl-F). Not sure why the data needs to be hard wrapped though. I.e. if it's just an editing preference, or if it has to do with wanting to ship documents to others as hard wrapped. If it's the latter, and there's any automation already involved, I'd think it's not a problem to add 'fold -sw78' to the tool-chain.
I do remember one situation though; when sharing prose documents on cvs/svn. Merging paragraphs is easier if these are kept as hard wrapped. Other than that, I'm clueless to why anyone would want to use it, when column width/resolution/font size differ so much today ;)

I am pretty sure that is exactly why one would want to do it; that and when working with the document on other editors that don't wrap nicely.

Think of writing mail. I want my mails hard-wrapped at around column 72 / 75 (mostly because I'm a UNIX dinosaur and tty are entrenched in me :)) and I positively hate editors that do not have hard-wrap. I don't use TM for mail as my main platform for that is mutt inside screen but if it would be included in TM then I'd use it inside Thunderbird/Mail.app for internal mail.

Yes.

Yes diff is mostly line-oriented and softwrapping has a tendency to wreck avock in diffs :)

This is quite ironic, and honest to good, I did not resize my window: --8<--
-->8-- I really think you shouldn't have hard wrapped that paragraph! :)

<- God. Yes, that's also a problem: reading hard-wrapped stuff in an editor with softwrap at a different column :-p. Now, automatic unwrap would fix that of course.
According to Allan Odgaard:

That's the main inconvenient for hard-wrapping of course if you cheat and try to read it in an mail/editor with a window too small :)
