EVE$HELP.HLB  —  SET_NOWRAP
  SET NOWRAP

  Disables automatic word wrap, so that as you type at the end of a line,
  your text can go past the right margin until you press RETURN. Thus,
  depending on the width of the EVE window, and on how much text you insert,
  part of your text may go out of view.

  Usage notes:

  o  SET NOWRAP is useful when you are editing very long lines, which may
     have to go past the right margin, such as multicolumn tables or program
     statements that are progressively indented.

  o  Word wrap is a buffer attribute. Thus, you can use SET NOWRAP when
     editing a buffer that contains a wide table or progressively indented
     program statements and use SET WRAP (which is the default setting) in
     other buffers.

  o  To find out if word wrap is enabled, use the SHOW command.

  o  On DECwindows, you can toggle the setting as follows:

        1.  Choose Buffer Attributes from the Customize menu.
        2.  Click M1 on Set Wrap in the dialog box.

  o  If you want to disable word wrap for all your buffers, put SET NOWRAP
     in an initialization file (typically named EVE$INIT.EVE) and use that
     file when you invoke EVE---see help on Initialization Files.
