I.e. not auto-fill-mode and not (setq truncate-lines nil), but something similar to (setq truncate-lines nil) that wraps the display on word boundaries. The dominance of Visual C++'s ability to do this in its editor has made 80 column source code a rarity where I work. :-( -- Don't send mail to Gail_Healy@hole.lickey.com The address is there for spammers to harvest.
