Powershell ISE console window command line word wrap

Question

I am bothered by the Powershell ISE console window. There is no word wrap feature in the command line. When I am using it, if my command line is very long, I will go too far away from the command. Is there any method to fix the width of command line?

Thank you.

Shouldn't be, as it's based on a CMD window which only has width, and no word wrap. Edit window might have word wrap, but, as with VB, wrapping one command line requires escaping a CR character, so this is unfeasible. — Vesper, Jun 08 '15 at 14:19

Directly no, through development yes. Easiest method is to use ISESteriods, that alters the ISE to enable the features you are looking for.

As mentioned about in this link

wow, this stuff turns ISE into a full-fledged IDE, from the looks of it. – Vesper Jun 08 '15 at 14:26
Word Wrap is working with Steroids - there lis a line comment button/short cut (`ctrl+shift+b`) but it only Highlights a block/part of the line. It says `hold ctrl` for line commenting. Is this a bug? – Timo Jun 02 '20 at 09:57
