I did ":set linebreak" in a file. I see that it isn't retained

As others have mentioned, put
set linebreak
in your ~/.vimrc which, can be done from the command-prompt with
echo set linebreak >> ~/.vimrc
I'm finding h, j, k, l; e, b; $, 0; and H, M, L a bit limited
While Tim Gray mentioned mappings for gj/gk, I also notice your
list omits the f/F/t/T/;/, motions as well as the sentence "("
and ")" motions. I use the fFtT;, motions *ALL* the time, to
the point where I almost never use h/l to move horizontally. For
prose (rather than code), the parens are useful for jumping
sentence-wise. Additionally the w/W/b/B/e/E motions will speed
up your horizontal movement.
Finally, can I specify a default font? If so, how do I
determine what fonts are available?
For now I'm using MacVim for now
I don't know the particulars of MacVim, but if it's running in a
console, you're at the mercy of your console-font; if you're
running in a GUI, you can tweak the 'guifont' setting. The
easiest way is to
:set guifont=*
to bring up your font registry for picking various fonts. Fiddle
around until you find a combination you like and then issue
:set guifont?
to see what the value is now set to. Then add a line to your
~/.gvimrc of that form such as
set guifont=Monaco:h10
in the same way as above for adding something to your .vimrc
Hope this helps.
