truncate lines issue

Hello!

I'd like to completly dispose of this `truncate-lines` feature. I have
tried to add (setq truncate-lines 0) to ~/.emacs but this didn't help.

Any ideas?

Best regards,
Andrew.

I'm not sure what you mean by disposing of the feature, but I think
you mean that you want to turn off truncation and show "continuation
lines" instead.  If so, then

(setq truncate-lines nil)

is probably what you wanted.  And

(setq truncate-partial-width-windows nil)

is probably what you also wanted.  See if these settings don't
accomplish what you're looking for.  (No claim of minimality.)

I use the following:

(global-set-key "\C-x\M-\C-t" 'toggle-truncate-lines)
;;
;; Truncation, and allow it to be toggled
;;
(setq default-truncate-lines t             ; start off truncating long
lines
 truncate-partial-width-windows nil)
