When I edit a haskell file in Vim, my editor automatically wraps comments that go past 80 characters to the next line. I'd like Vim to use the same behavior for python files (and text files), but I can't find the setting that does this anywhere, in my ~/.vim/syntax
folder or vimrc
.
Here are relevant lines of my .vimrc:
set wrap
set textwidth=80
Setting textwidth
will put your maximum line length. This would put a new line at that character point (white space could play with an exact 80 a bit though). (This effects the actual formatting of your file).
wrap
is indeed what you want for your splitting/wrapping though.
Make sure your .vimrc is in your home directory.
