Fair enough, we all have our own idea of what is readable and I find line wrapping to unreadable so I turn it off.
Actually, if there was an option to just wrap comments or the flag was on a file-by-file basis and easy to turn on/off (e.g. checkbox in the window itself), it might make it better, but as it is, it an all or nothing situation.

Thanks, I’ll have a look.
It amazes me that XCode still actually puts formatting information in the file itself, IMO, it would be better to store source files with no white space and reformat it as per the users preferences when they open the file. That way, we could all views comments and format it how we like to see it. For instance, some people like the K&R Style and some don’t, some like to indent code, some don’t.
This is how Think Pascal worked IIRC (was a *long* time ago!).
Cheers
Dave
