Japanese is still like that. No spaces, and lines can just break in the middle of words -- though there are certain cases where word wrap algorithms are not allowed to split lines (and standardized rules for these cases). See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_breaking_rules_in_East_Asian_languages https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_breaking_rules_in_East_As... if you're curious.
