I'm looking for a way to reflow code so that code that extends beyond the page guide is automatically moved to the following line. Many editors such as Atom and RStudio have this feature. I know Stata has the option to wrap lines inside a do file that are not in view, but I'm looking for a slightly different solution that wraps lines based on the page guide. For example, in Atom you can click alt-cmd-q after selecting multiple lines and the code will be automatically reflowed based on the vertical page guide set. Is there something similar to this in Stata? I find that reflowing text in this way
makes it easier for me to read.
I'm anticipating answers that point out the ability to manually reflow long lines using three forward slashes, but I'd like to preemptively note that this is not what I'm looking for.
Also, I seem to be unable to change the page guide to a value greater than 99 in the do-file editor settings. When I set a value greater than 99 the application preferences window crashes. Is this a bug? Can someone else confirm this behavior?
