> I have not seen an example where horizontal scrolling is semi-permanent (C-u C-x <) and the current line is scrolled differently from the rest. For example, if w->min_hscroll is 4, shall I assume that the current line will always have the same amount of horizontal scrolling as all other lines in the visible window?
No, of course not. Only the minimum amount of hscroll will be the
same for all the lines.
If auto-hscroll-mode is set to current-line, then typing "C-u 5 C-x <"
will hscroll all lines by 5 columns. If you then move cursor so that
it gets too close to the right margin of the window, the current line,
and only that line, will be hscrolled by more than 5 columns, in order
to bring point into view. The other lines will remain at their
5-column hscroll.
IOW, in this mode "C-x <" affects all lines, but only the current line
is scrolled more than that when needed.
