[Tex/LaTex] free LaTeX IDE that keeps indentation when word-wrapping

Question

I've used TeXnicCenter almost exclusively over the rather short amount of time I've been using LaTeX. I like it quite a bit, except that wrapped parts of long lines are not indented at all. I would prefer for long lines to soft-wrap to the same indentation as the beginning of the line so that I can easily see the structure of my document.

Are there any good LaTeX IDEs out there that preserve the indentation of a line when word-wrapping?

Note the following:

• To me, hard word wrapping is unacceptable.
• I'm using Windows (obviously, given that I use TeXnicCenter).
• I don't have any desire to learn Emacs or Vim at the moment, although I suspect they have ways to do this. Their learning curves are too steep for my current situation.
• I think WinEdt has this feature, but it's not free.

Edit: This feature is now available in the current version of TeXnicCenter under view --> Same Indent for Wrapped Lines, so that's what I use. I've also become moderately proficient with Vim since I asked this question, but have never been able to find a good/simple way of preserving indentation for wrapped lines in Vim.

Answer 1

Did you try out TexMakerX http://texmakerx.sourceforge.net/? It is free, has a very, very powerful editor, is available for different platforms and it should do what you want (if I understood your question correctly, see example screenshot).
