In these cases you don't want horizontal scrolling, because it destroys the alignment that helps the user orient. Which is especially important in source code, or a directory tree.

?? Who said my change implements per-line scrolling? The whole view is scrolled, just like in a text view where alignment is also not "destroyed" as you claim. Wrapping is much more detrimental to orientation.

Just my two cents: I work with a touch pad most of the time and wouldn't like horizontal scrolling in the project manager. The problem is that it wobbles left and right when all you want is to scroll up and down. I'm also not using it in the source code view, instead the dynamic word wrap helps me to break long lines, if they occur.

If anyone cares, here is what the official documentation says on this matter. I want to address the -std= vs. -cl-std= issue in another commit.

@apol: Could you have a look again? I think there is nothing wrong here.

By the way, I posted the question to Khronos. Their preferred channel seems to be opening an issue on one of their GitHub repositories. So I opened issue #27 at the OpenCL Registry. However, I do not expect an answer. From Khronos' point of view OpenCL source code is just a string in memory. Compiling OpenCL directly from file is not possible. (As far as I know the API.)

It might be that some OpenCL compilers support "clx.y", but the standard doesn't seem to allow it. (Even older standards don't: https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/sdk/1.1/docs/man/xhtml/clBuildProgram.html#idp145296)
