To word wrap when composing, try the key combination M-q, which is bound by default to the function FILL-PARAGRAPH. It works in every mode, not just Gnus. It can fill regions and also fixes quote marks for you. You can customize the desired width with the "fill-column" variable. > Another question, I see ther's control and meta keys but what's the > sequence to "W w" and the likes? There are no modifiers for these. You just type the letters when viewing an article, like in vi. Note the case sensitivity: you'd press Shift+w w.
