I don't believe nano can word wrap on the fly with any kind of key combination (as compared to 'gq' in vim). It's more of a configuration setting that does it when you envoke the editor.

However, with long, unwrapped lines.. even if you softwrap with nano, it's still a long line. So if you quote that line, it it will only place one quote character at the beginning of the paragraph (since it's still one line).

Vim will wrap where you want it to, as well as include the quote character at the beginning of each wrapped line. Pretty impressive, I might say!

Hopefully there's plenty of good years left to keep those numbers up. :)
