I'd like to use an automated "unwrap" feature. Does such a thing exist
in vim? Or a unix/linux command primitive I can integrate (similar to
the way I use 'map v {!}fmt^M' to fix paragraph wrap while I'm editing
them?
Even better, might vim include a programmable feature now or in the
future to automatically make non-wrapped lines look like wrapped lines
much like WYSIWYG editors do?
My main goal: I want to be able to use the spell-and-grammar checking of
editors like MS Word when I'm done writing my asciidoc text, but MS Word
doesn't handle hard-lines well when doing this. I haven't found another
editor that does spell-and-grammar checking as well as word (I couldn't
figure out how to get OpenOffice Writer to do it well).
There are other goals, but this is the big one.

If you want to format all paragraphs as single lines, set textwidth to a very
large number, then reformat:
:set wm=0 tw=999999
:normal gggqG
