Copying text from Word - the lines in Bat are too long
 
When I want to copy some text from Word to Bat, for example 10 lines in Word become just two extremely long lines in Bat which do not fit on one screen ... The real lines are not observed ... A bit uncomfortable it is  
 
That's because Word doesn't include the line feeds to the copied text, as it's rewrapping them between the margins.
When you copy & paste them from Word document with portait oerientation to one in landscape you'll see the same behaviour.

As Word doesn't include line feeds, it's a bit hard for TB to decide where to put them. TB doesn't wrap pasted text, would be kind of a nuisance when you copy & paste log files for instance.

When you're using MicroEd (TB's default text editor) you can wrap the pasted text by pressing Alt-L

This is almost right. The Bat! allows to reformat text when pasting using feature "Paste formatted" accessible via Ctrl+Shift+Ins or in menu "Edit" in Editor.
