I think you are speaking about the method editor: you can go to a new line without problem when you want to break a line

But if you are speaking about a text area field, just set the horizontal scroll bar to "never" in its property editor

Yes, the method editor...

If a line is longer than the screen width, I have to move the scrollbar. Some editors break the line so you can see all the code into the screen.

I don't want it to break!

I think a setting would be nice (in your case) to have it break after xx characters/words.

I think about "soft" wrapping: not "real" breaking, only for show in the editor... Many editors (i.e., EditPlus) have this feature

I agree with Marcel.. I absolutely do not want any editor to auto-break my code. If I want it to go to a new line.. I can just click on the enter key... dividing a long instruction where it make sense for me ....
