   Hard to say what you mean by "very old version" but doesn't control-T (while   
   in post mode) bring up something like this?   
      
   T Overtype OFF I Autoindent OFF Word wrap OFF   
   D Tab width 8 Left margin 1 Right margin 77   
   X Rectangle mode OFF Case insensitivity OFF Search wraps OFF   
    Menu explorer ON Autoswap mode OFF Indent char 32   
    Indent step 2 french spacing OFF Highlighting ON   
    no tabs OFF Center on scroll OFF Auto detect CR-LF ON   
    Guess indent ON Z CR-LF (MS-DOS) OFF N Line numbers OFF   
   Marking OFF Meta chars as-is OFF Force last NL OFF   
    Disable backups OFF Auto unmark OFF Exit ask OFF   
      
   The word wrap is 3rd column, first row. Never did figure out how to default   
   it to ON.
