I've not managed to get vim to do this automatically (I haven't tried much
though). What I usually do is, once I've re-edited a paragraph and it has some
overflowing lines, go to that paragraph in Normal mode and do:
vip (to select the whole paragraph), then
gq (to rewrap the selected text).
HTH,
Pete.
