The real issue is how to view a .m package file when you do not have the original .nb notebook from which it was created. From time to time I've had this problem with WRI or 3rd party packages distributed without the "source". There is no satisfactory way to view them in Mathematica or even Workbench in order to wrap the very long lines they often have. I have to resort to a standard text editor that allows wrapping.
