Put the cursor on the first column after the left continuation arrow and evaluate this sexp: (put-text-property (1- (point)) (point) 'display " \n"). 5. Now the rest of the text, from point to the end, appears in the same position as before step 3' but the continuation arrows have vanished, i.e., it looks like there are two lines of text, not one continued line. When I try this, the continuation arrows do not disappear. I am not sure that there is a bug here.
