After years of using Emacs, today I might have press= ed some presumably incorrect keyboard combination and now Emacs in AucTex h= as started to go crazy. I used to have visual-line-mode and line numbering = on. Now suddenly it wraps to some column (98) instead of the window with an= d if I press ctrl-e it jumps to the next line. When I go back with ctrl-b i= t doesn't jump to the last word on the previous line but to the last positi= on in the visible frame! Then, when there is e.g. "the" on the current line= and I type " dude", "the" jumps to the previous line and "dude" moves to t= he beginning of the line. Also, the line numbering now shows one line per paragraph instead of consec= utive line numbers for each soft-wrapped line.=20 What's puzzling me is that I did not make any changes to default.el or .ema= cs and nevertheless the change is persistent across Emacs launches and even= logging in and out again. It happened from one moment to the other, so it = must have been caused by an unusual keypress. Does anybody have an idea what I inadvertently changed? Please help, this i= s driving me nuts and I can't work that way. GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.18.9) of 2017-09-20 on lcy01-07, modified by Debian
