I also wanted to do this, and discovered that if you set the width to
0 it wraps as you expect. I don't think the documentation mentions
this.

... and I wanted to do this too. I got around it by doing
scrollbar_width(0). 0 it seems is the answer today :)
In general, fltk seems to like to present monolithic widgets with
somewhat spotty and ad hoc support for customization. I'd rather
widgets that scroll present a scrollable interface that you can later
compose with a scrollbar-adding widget. But anyway, it is what it is.
