Auto word wrapping (hard wrap)
A feature-rich environment for writing LaTeX documents on Windows
Brought to you by:

The 6.01 release is a good version. However, the
Auto word wrapping function that I expected from
long before is still not there.
I wonder if we can have such an option in the menu
or in the tool bar. By pushing the button, or
shortcut key, we can enable or disable AUTO word
wrapping.
It is ideal, if we can adjust the number of
characters in a line.
Thanks a lot,
aero

What the users means here is a real word wrapping. In
difference to the current dynamic word wrapping, which does
only affect the display, the word wrapping addressed by the
user would really inser line breaks.
I have given it a short try and seen, that this is hard to
implement, but I respect the wish: It is an important
feature if you have to edit your files even with other
editors, which does not provide the dynamic wrapping.
Further on shorter lines are better, when LaTeX brings up
errors or warnings referenced by line numbers only.

I changed the priority of this, because another user wrote
on this:
Using TXC in conjunction with CVS is a kind of
complicated thing.
The logical word wrap feature of TXC supports with a
comfortable view of TeX sources every time the files are
opened with the current window width.
When saved the files have extra long lines, especially for
whole paragraphs a.o. without manual line breaks.
diff()ing for cvs purposes therefore is not quiet as
comfortable.
Is there any chance to get an option to allow the saving
of the soft word wraps (at window edge or at a const
column count, two features?) as normal CR (CR/LF) for
tex files?
So identifying textual parts in tex sources as changed
local would be a great gain for using TXC in conjunction
with cvs, I think.

Whats the status on this wish? Any ETA, it's almost 1 year
after the last post and the newest version downloadable does
not support this. Unfortunately TXC is a very good
environment which some of the people I work with use and
don't want to scrap :)
(I need the wordwrap support for cvs/svn, where currently
everything checked in by the TXC users is always changing
whole paragraphs.)

No change. No ETA. If you are a C++ developer, you are more
than welcome to implement this.

I imagine this feature can be a little difficult to implement.
Cofundos is a platform to collect donations in order to realize such open-source enhancements. I created a project on Cofundos for "Auto word wrapping" and bid Euro 100 for its realization (since I need this feature desperately too):

Please bid as well at Cofundos or make an offer, if you are able to implement this.

Implemented with a menu entry and shortcuts. But it has to be done by the user, i.e., it is not automatic. I think that automatic hard word wrapping is not desirable at all.
