Wrap
====

 - Command: wrap state
     (`C-a r', `C-a C-r')
     Sets the line-wrap setting for the current window.  When line-wrap
     is on, the second consecutive printable character output at the
     last column of a line will wrap to the start of the following
     line.  As an added feature, backspace (^H) will also wrap through
     the left margin to the previous line.  Default is `on'.

 - Command: defwrap state
     (none)
     Same as the `wrap' command except that the default setting for new
     windows is changed. Initially line-wrap is on and can be toggled
     with the `wrap' command (`C-a r') or by means of "C-a : wrap
     on|off".
