Line wrapping in the article buffer is necessary (because people post
using long lines). But there's one instance when it would make sense to
have `truncate-lines' set to t: When displaying HTML tables. They
become totally incomprehensible when using line wrapping. It would make
more sense for them to have `truncate-lines'-like behaviour, and just
let the user scroll to the right to see the rest of the table.
Is there any way to say "I want these lines to behave as if
`truncate-lines' is t, but not anything else"? I've looked at the text
property section in the manual, but couldn't find anything obvious...
