What I would like it to do:
===========================
A true word wrap mode where long lines fill the width of the window,
but complete words are put on the next line if they do not fit. Up-
and down-keys work as expected, going down one line on the screen, and
not one line of the file.
This is a common request. I don't have any serious problems with it
that I cannot handle in various ways. You might want to take a look at
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/LongLines
or
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/RefillMode
And there is a "category" page for filling:
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/CategoryFilling
Hopefilly you will find something there.
