I tried Toggle Word Wrap. It is exactly what I need. Thanks. I also did some research in the HTML specifications at the W3C site, both HTML 4.01 and the current draft for HTML 5. Neither of them mention how a browser should handle plain ASCII text. Of course, both specifications are about HTML while a page of plain ASCII text is not HTML. The descriptions of the <pre> element in both specifications say nothing about wrapping; since the <pre> element is used when text is preformatted (e.g., with spaces, indentations, columns), wrapping is likely unwanted at least as a default. -- David E.
