Hi: Code:bill@darkstar:~$ ls -l ~/.vimrc
-rw-r--r-- 1 bill bill 10 Oct 29 15:49 /home/bill/.vimrc
bill@darkstar:~$ cat ~/.vimrc
set tw=0
bill@darkstar:~$However when editing a text file with vim it still does automatic word wrapping. Why is that? tw=0 (tw=text width) should disable automatic word wrapping.
