16 First of all, are you sure that it's actually a line break and not a
17 line wrap? Find a line of text that seems to take up multiple lines.
18 Go to the beginning of that line and hit the End key. If the cursor
19 jumps to another line, you know it's a line wrap, and it can be turned
20 off with "set nowrap".
