Support no-wrap in chat view - settings + view menu toggle
0%
Description
Sometimes, you're on a channel where people (or bots) post several pieces of information in very long messages, and you want to see that content without line wrapping - even at the expense of hiding some of the text.
Quassel should support this with a wrap/no-wrap toggle - both in the preferences, under chat view; and in the View menu.

The feature you're requesting is to add a "no-wrap" option in the chat view, which would prevent text from wrapping to the next line when it reaches the end of the chat window. This would be particularly useful for users who prefer to view chat messages in a compact format, without the extra white space caused by line breaks.
To implement this feature, a toggle could be added to the chat view settings menu, or to a separate "view options" menu. Users could then choose whether they want their chat messages to wrap or not, depending on their personal preferences.
Once enabled, the no-wrap option would prevent text from automatically wrapping to the next line when it reaches the end of the chat window. Instead, users would have to manually scroll horizontally to view the full message. This would help to maximize the amount of information that can be displayed on the screen at once, while also making it easier to scan through chat logs quickly. [SPAM LINK REMOVED]
