--- Comment #11 from Paul M <kde at paulmcauley.com> ---
It would be good to implement this in conjunction with bug 62380.

I also had suggested an implementation method on Brainstorm (
http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=110643 ).

Namely, that firstly there is a check item under the View menu of "Enable word
wrap" (as per bug 62380).

Then this specific feature would be enabled by having an additional
"Dynamically rewrap scrollback" check item under the View menu.

If "Word Wrap" and "Dynamically rewrap scrollback" are both checked then the
width of historical scrollback output dynamically adjusts to correspond to the
width of the Konsole window.

If "Word Wrap" is disabled and "Dynamically rewrap scrollback" is then toggled
from disabled to enabled, then all wrapped lines in the historical scrollback
buffer will instead now flow beyond the width of the Konsole window and
horizontal scroll bars will appear if necessary.

I also understand that other KDE applications like Kate use terminology such as
"Static word wrap" and "Dynamic word wrap" (e.g. bug 191028 ), so maybe a good
idea to also align the terminology used between KDE applications.
