To use Aquamacs with a UK keyboard, you want to select Options, Option

Yes. Both Emacs and Vim will do exactly this when re-wrapping a

hard/soft *characters*. He asked about *actions*: hard-wrapping code and
soft-wrapping comments. He does that (presumably) by inserting newline
characters in code where he wants to force a new line, and telling his
