Toolbar button to toggle wordwrap

    I like to alternate between wordwrap and non-wordwrap views, so that I can see a line's entire contents, but then remove the wrapping in order to better see the (pretty-printed) tag structure.  I'd like to suggest adding a toolbar button to toggle the wordwrap setting.  The current means of changing the setting -- drilling into the preferences dialog -- is somewhat cumbersome particularly when switching back and forth repeatedly.

    Alternately or in addition, a keyboard shortcut for wordwrap would be nice.

    I just discovered this project today.  It's mentioned in Elliotte Rusty Harold's blog ( http://www.cafeconleche.org/#March_18_2007_29567 -- although I only seem to be seeing the reference in the blog's Atom feed).  I'm looking forward to getting to know it better.

    Regards!

      I agree: this is the second request for a one-click word-wrap toggle, so I will implement this as soon as possible, hopefully for 1.0.9.3.

      Many thanks for the suggestion!

      I see that, as of 1.0.9.3, menu item View / Wrap Words (shortcut Control-W) toggles the word wrapping.  Thanks!
