On a related note, it occurs to me that a really great additional user setting would be a "Wrap Prefix", which would be prepended to the wrapped portions of long lines (or just after the soft hyphen for users of "Auto-Wrap"

For example, if I have my Code Prefix set to "#&001;: " and my Code Wrap Length set to "10" then 2 long lines consisting of a-z and A-Z looks like this (at least it does on a scratch pad)...

#001: abcdefghij
+klmnopqrs
+tuvwxyz
#002: ABCDEFGHIJ
+KLMNOPQRS
+TUVWXYZ

But if there was a "Wrap Prefix" option, i could set it to something like "    : " and it would render as...

#001: abcdefghij
    : klmnopqrst
    : uvwxyz
#002: ABCDEFGHIJ
    : KLMNOPQRST
    : UVWXYZ
