("thus far" has the same idiomatic meaning as so far or until now)
"We have not had any problems with the program thus far."
"Thus far, we have observed no life on other planets."
Not necessarily. There is no word or phrase in English that requires a comma before or after it. Whether to use a comma is entirely a matter of sentence structure.
Yes. However, using "for to" in place of the preposition "to" is considered incorrect. In many cases, the sentence should not be separate from the preceding one, but should be a clause added to it.
My classes were far from my house. Warren ran very far. The far side of the state was a 3 hour drive away. I did not go to college far away.
In the sentence "you went so far," "far" is an adverb modifying the verb "went." It describes the distance or extent of the action.
[full sentence]; thus, [full sentence].The meaning of thus shows cause/effect, like so, so you would probably use it in a sentence like you would so. The difference is that thus, being a conjunctive adverb, needs a semicolon before and a comma after when it comes in the middle of a sentence.It was raining, so I took an umbrella. (So is a coordinating conjunction, so it only needs a comma before it.)It was raining; thus, I took an umbrella. (Thus is a conjunctive adverb; thus, it needs a semicolon and a comma to join the two sentences.)
The adverb idiom thus far (so far, until now) can appear wherever it sounds reasonable in relation to the modified verb or adjective."The prototype has been found to be completely useless thus far.""Thus far, there is no cause for alarm.""Life as we know it has thus far not been found on any other planet."("Life as we know it has not been found, thus far, on any other planet.")
The word thus precedes the causal phrase (or follows the conjunction and) in a compound sentence, or comes at the start of a sentence if it refers to a cause in a preceding sentence.(Thus means "so" or "therefore." The phrase thus far simply means "so far.")Examples:"The Roman Empire became fiscally unstable, thus it fell.""Flat screen TV's were lighter and sharper, and thus many consumers purchased these new versions.""The company was losing market share. Thus the Xbox 360 was introduced.""Thus far, no lifeforms have been found on other planets.""The new system has not had any major problems thus far."

My mind likes to wander to far-off places.
Yes. 'Thus' is another word for 'therefore'. Thus the sentence you start of with 'thus' should be an explanatory sentence.

Not necessarily. There is no word or phrase in English that requires a comma before or after it. Whether to use a comma is entirely a matter of sentence structure.
