Personally can never deal with wrapping and use the following in my .bashrc to leverage less' support of horizontal scrolling, as less is used as the default pager by many commands: export LESS="-iRS" "S" is the pertinent option here. "R" enables less to display colors. "i" uses case insensitive search. cheers, Pádraig.
