That's not a flaw, it's a feature. If you don't want it to wrap,
then the manpage reads:
-w (--nowrap)
Disable wrapping of long lines.
You -DID- read the manpage, right?
No, I did not read the man pages for the program. If breaking a line for
a config file is the default, I would rather have mc available. The
program is broken if it does not work in a sane manner with initial
setup. I doubt seriously that I would use nano to write documents where
the next line break would be advantageous.
Who reads directions until all other attempts fail? :-)
Thanks for the note regarding nano having man pages. I would not have
guessed a b/w editor with no function keys for functions would have a
man page on assumption.
