Allow disabling word wrap in the serial terminal text pane #121

Open edleno2 opened 1 year ago

Type: Feature Request

Often the terminal output is prefixed with timestamps, type of message, category and then payload data. Since word wrap is enabled by default you can not easily identify the beginning of a new record because there may be several (to many) lines of record payload.

Allow the ability to disable word wrap which would then display a horizontal scroll bar and start each line on a new line using the CR or LF control codes as appropriate.

@edleno2 Thanks for the feature request! I will put this on the backlog and we'll assess where it may fit in with our current workload!
