Use the wrap=WORD option. Here's an example:

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()
t = Text(wrap=WORD)
t.pack()
root.mainloop()

Alternatively you can set a value for wrap using Text.config():

t = Text()
t.config(wrap=WORD)

The other valid values for wrap are CHAR which is the default, or NONE in which case no wrapping occurs and the line will grow indefinitely.
