It is a buffer local vari= able. =20 But then there the following possibilities=20 (setq-default fill-column 72) and =20 (add-hook 'prog-mode-hook (lambda () (setq fill-column 72))) The first sets fill-column globally. What does that mean? I interpret that the value is set globally but only to those buffers for which there is no local binding. This setting the value (setq-default fill-column 72) does not always work for the current buffer. How can one solve this proble= m? What does the mode hook do exactly? =20
