Text mode auto-fill

Text mode auto-fill

[Peter Gordon]

I am using text mode with auto-fill.

I have a paragraph like this.

1. This is example text on a line and this is the 
next line.


As you can see the line underneath is aligned with the marker and not
with the text. On Xemacs it works.

What do I have to set to get the alignment that I want.

Thanks,

Peter

Check the manual entry for adaptive filling. My setup behaves as you
want, I think you just need to fix your
adaptive-fill-first-line-regexp variable. Mine is:

adaptive-fill-first-line-regexp's value is 
"\\`[ 	]*\\'\\|[ 	]*[-[:alnum:]]*>+[ 	]*"

HTH,
