Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
My brain struggles to process non wrapped lines so an option to disable line wrapping would be a life saver when I'm 4 hours into a debug session and my eyes are going crossed in addition to the standard difficulty I experience.
(I've been living in cli for something like 20 years and it's just something I've come to accept I'm not going to get used to. My brain just doesn't process wrapped lines well.)

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like a check box that allows you to toggle word wrap

Describe alternatives you've considered
I currently use lnav and less where I can but it's not always an option, for example, when following live logs

Additional context
I've seen other use cases (for example folks that spend their time watching network traces seem to want similar so they can more easily perceive patterns)
