Line wrap in editor [message #210063] Thu, 11 March 2004 18:00 Go to next message

Hi all,
Is there a way to turn on line wrap in the editor?
This would be very useful. For example when browsing log-files
that are not so well-formatted.
Or even for viewing java-code written by strange standards allowing
lines of about 120 characters or so (which I actually have to do).


If I understand things right,
I can't just set the java formatting to 80 chars since then I will
actuallay reformat all the code written with 120 characters linewidth
that I am browsing, and this is not what I want.
I just want to see all of the code without needing to scroll sideways.


Regards,
Peter

If it not already present in the Eclipse editor
(I could not find it anywhere),
I hope will find its way in there soon!





From the help-documentation of Eclipse 2.1:


Fixed width console

This preference controls whether the console has a fixed character
width. When on, a maximum character width must also be specified. Some
applications write long lines to the console which require horizontal
scrolling to read. This can be avoided by setting the console to use a
fixed width, automatically wrapping console output.


Regards,
Peter, now with the correct accout setting
