How do I make Gvim word wrap in such a way that doesn't break words in the middle?

You can use "[movement]gq" to re-wrap some text.
Command to toggle word wrap in Vim While :set wrap will turn on word wrap in Vim and :set nowrap will turn off word wrapping, you can also use both commands with the ! (bang) symbol to toggle word wrap.
Answer: To get Vim to not wrap text, issue the "vim set nowrap" command, like this: :set nowrap. By default vim will wrap long lines in the editor, but this command changes that display, so long lines will now go off-screen to your right.
It is better to use the :normal command with ! -specifier in this case to avoid clashes with custom mappings. – ib.
Looks like there is a solution online after all.

You can
:set nowrap to just let huge lines scroll of the edge of your screen. But tw is probably the better way to go.
