Hi nano fellows,
I am often editing Markdown texts in an 80 columns wide terminal using
nano with --softwrap. Due to the fact that many URLs these days are
longer than what easily fits 1 line, quite often we see Markdown links
produce quite some empty space. Like e.g. after "[This" in
[This
example](https://www.this.example.org/archive/2024/long-...-url)
I think my personal preference would be to see a softwrap between
`example]` and `(https...`
Am I right that nano cannot do this currently because --atblanks wraps
at blanks only and there is no option to make nano wrap at
punctuation, "wordbounds" or "wordchars"? Or did I miss something?
Am I a weirdo to use nano in a terminal for Markdown editing? Or is
that a not so uncommon use case?
