Well. This is what we usually have in Emacs. Multiple approaches to the
same or similar problem. Choose what you prefer.

The basics are described in 8.8 Continuation Lines section of Emacs
manual and the links from that section.

1. First line indentation: Check out adaptive-wrap package and its
   adaptive-wrap-extra-indent customization.
2. Hypenation: You can check line wrapping/truncation in the Emacs
   manual. If you do not have word-wrap set to non-nil (it is not, by
   default), the words will be wrapped in the middle. The indicator at
   the boundary is usually not hyphen, but can be customized via
   fringe-indicator-alist.

Hope it helps.
