How do I change the width of a text page just for that session? Or change the default? The reason why I ask is lot of these web-based email sites have a character width of 60 chars or less, which is really annoying, when I like to compose my emails through emacs, and copy and paste them back into the web interface. (BTW, does gmail have a 60 char width?) thanks.
