Joe Editor Wordwrap

Disable WordWrap

joe --wordwrap filename.txt

or you can create a .joerc file in your home directory, but in my experience --wordwrap doesn't work in the .joerc so I add it as an alias to my .bashrc or .cshrc

.cshrc

alias joe       joe --wordwrap
alias jeo       joe --wordwrap    # because I'm a lazy typer ;)

.bashrc

alias joe='joe --wordwrap'
alias jeo='joe --wordwrap'        # because I'm a lazy typer ;)
