Word Wrap, crossed-eyes, and so forth with text-fields

I suppose I am trying to reinvent the wheel (my problem is
that my wheels are square), but . . .
If I set wordWrap to true words get chopped in half
&
if I set wordWrap to false one has to scroll laterally and
vertically,
and the whole thing is unusable.
I would like (as, I suspect, would quite a few others) to
know how to wordWrap, but only at the word-boundaries
. . . OK, OK, OK . . .
just waiting for some smart linguist to point out that
word-boundaries are arbitrary conventions forced on us by
schoolteachers, and so forth.
Notwithstanding this, it is bloody hard work trying to read
a text field where half the words are chopped in half.
Help gratefully recieved,
Richmond
