    QUOTES.TXT I'll have to look into where I can check that. I imagine
    I can check xtrn_area.editor[user.editor].settings for that?

    Yes, the XTRN_QUOTEWRAP bit-flag.

    There's also an option for the number of columns to wrap to (a number, or the user's terminal width). Is there a way to check for that value in JS?

    Not easily: that setting isn't directly modeled). However, you could use the cnflib.js to load xtrn.cnf and find that setting, or wait until v3.20a, where that setting is (much) easier to parse from xtrn.ini (converted form the old xtrn.cnf), OR just assume it's 0 (wrap to user's terminal width). That's likely the most common setting anyway.

    OK, thanks.
    I may look into using cnflib.js for now to see if I can get the setting that way.
