(I saw > longlines.el, but I wanted to ask here first.) auto-fill-mode doesn't pay attention to the size of the window that displays the buffer. It just uses fill-column, which you can set via C-x f. > Also, with the M-q command, it seems to move the right margin in very > aggressively, too much actually. Is there a way to tame it to, say, an 80- > or 100-character block? That's what set-fill-column is for. More than 80 is not recommended because brains can't handle long lines as well as shorter ones. > Also(^2), in HTML fill mode, the standard C-M-\ indentation throws > everything off, disregarding any tag matching.
