Look at the documentation for fred-wrap-p.
  (setf (fred-wrap-p <fred-window>) nil)
will turn off wrapping.

BTW, the way I found this was 
  1) apropos "wrap"  -- returned way too much stuff
  2) apropos "wrap-p" -- returned short list including fred-wrap-p
     (lucky guess)
  3) search the on-line doc for "fred-wrap-p".

Maybe someone else can say how to set the fill margin; I forget.
It's some obscure EMACS keystroke, I think.
