Hi,

I just made a KDE 3.0.3 patch that fixes virtual wrapping in kedit.
The patch, and also a binary .deb for the impatient, are available at:

  http://koti.welho.com/jelonen/code/unofficial-debs/kedit-wordwrap/

Choose "Virtual (visible but not saved)" as Word Wrap from options. It 
replaces the "Let editor width decide" option.

If you like the windows feel you should take a look at nedit.
It's fine for simple as well as programming or other semi-professionel tasks.

Jedit is a very good text editor written in Java so it will run on many
platforms (ive used it on solaris big iron machines and linux pcs). As its a
java app though it is slow to load, and uses quite a lot of ram. It does have
a very good feature set however, and many good plugins for project
management, cvs integration, auto formatting etc. See www.jedit.org if your
interested.

in your .vimrc:
set wrap

Odd that kate can't do that though... *shrug*

Wanted: text editor where word wrap does not insert newline

2002-09-04 Thread Bruce Miller
I would welcome advice on a choice of Linux text editors with word wrap. I am 
being pragmatic in the transition from Windows to Linux and expect there will 
machines with one or both on our home network for the foreseeable future. I 
am, however, moving from only playing with Linux to using it for real work. I 
am not interested in the holy wars of vi versus EMACS but have no problem 
with making the effort to learn one or the other. Under CP/M, DOS and 
Windows, I tended to settle on one editor for several years and learn it 
inside out.

I am also, to the extent possible, moving away from using a full-featured word 
processor for simple text editing, e.g. off-line drafting of e-mail messages.

The KDE text editors (kedit/kate/kwrite) have a familiar command set and 
interface for ex-Windows users. My problem with them is that the word wrap 
feature inserts a newline at each word wrap whereas I am used to editors that 
wrap only on screen but not "to disk". Newlines are inserted only by a user's 
explicit keystroke.

I would welcome suggestions for strong text editors with a "no newline" 
implementation of word wrap.

Bruce
