:set wrap in vi (elvis)

The stock vi (elvis) doesn’t wrap over-80-column and
have to horizontal scroll to see the long lines.

Is there any option to wrap long lines into the screen?
(VIM has :set wrap)

How odd. I thought :set wrap was standard but you’re right, it isn’t there.
If you set wrapmargin=1 then it wraps but it actually breaks the line up.
Very annoying. Looking at the output of :set all, there doesn’t actually
seem to be anything there. Sorry.

cheers,

Kris
