Strange gvim behaviour [solved]

[rahulthewall]

My gvim seems to have developed a rather irritating problem. Even when gvim is maximized, I can not type normally till the end of the line. As soon as I reach width 80 (which is the default width of the terminal) it jumps to the next line. I would like to change this to mirror the current size of gvim.

same result in different terminals? xterm, gnome-terminal, konsole, ...
have you played around with fortran stuff? that could be a reason.

[rahulthewall]

Yes, same problem with both gnome-terminal and xterm. Haven't even remotely played with Fortran.

:set textwidth (press enter)
if it shows some number (say 80) then set it to 0.
