thanks for the pointer.

i tried:

  (defun my-truncate ()
     (setq truncate-partial-width-windows nil))

  (add-hook 'moinmoin-mode-hook 'my-truncate)

this "works" -- but only in the sense that all buffers and modes now
treat truncate-partial-width-windows as nil. which seems equivalent to
just setq'ing it at the global level. so i also tried:

 (add-hook 'moinmoin-mode-hook '(lambda () (setq truncate-partial-
width-windows nil)))

this does not seem to work.

is using add-hook even the correct way to restrict this to a mode --
or am i just messing up the definitions?

thanks.
