But when I visit an org file, it is not in word wrapping mode, i.e. longs lines never gets wrapped, you can't see the whole line if the line is too long. 1. How do I turn on soft word wrapping in org-mode? 2. If org-mode automatically turning off word wrapping is a feature, what is the reason non-wrapping mode should be prefered in org-mode? I can see why in ediff mode tho. I don't know what word wrapping mode and non-word wrapping mode are called in emacs speak.
