Perhaps you would like to format your file so that it takes the shape
you want for editing, and format it back to the form "one note -- one
line" upon leaving vim. While editing, the internal formatting can
be preserved by setting formatoptions, e.g.: set fo=a2
(along with proper value of tw). Or, you may prefer to not have
autoformatting, but do formatting yourself when you wish to: gqap.
In this case set fo=2 will do.
You might also need to check the formatexpr and formatprg options.
