Ahen.

BTW, the proper way to turn on word wrap is to add these three lines:
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook (function (lambda () (auto-fill-mode 1))))
(setq fill-column 72)
(setq default-major-mode 'text-mode)
to your .emacs file.  It autowraps text as you write it, and makes it
easy to wrap text from others (go to the end of the line and hit space
a few times).

For VI users, the proper way to wordwrap is to switch to emacs. ;)
