Does any of you know why this should not work in version 22.0 (w32)?:
(defun unfill-paragraph () ;; bound to C-x M-q
"Do the opposite of fill-paragraph; stuff all lines in the current
paragraph into a single long line."
(interactive)
(let ((fill-column 90002000))
(fill-paragraph nil)))
C-h k C-x M-q does show that the function is bound to that key sequence, with:
(global-set-key "\C-x\M-q" 'unfill-paragraph)
The only other settings that I can think might affect this (under
custom-set-variables) are:
'(sentence-end "[.?!][]\"')}]*\\($\\| $\\| \\| \\)[
]*")
'(sentence-end-double-space nil)
It looks like fill-paragraph is ignoring the fill-column value in the let
form. Any ideas?
Ed.

Works for me in 22.0.50.

Works for me with 22.0.96 on GNU/Linux, too.

Works for me too on w32 with
GNU Emacs 22.0.96.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2007-03-21 (patched)
Did you try starting with
emacs -Q

Thanks, Barry, Tassilo, and Lennart. No, emacs -Q didn't work either. I
copied just the keybinding and function forms into *scratch* and evaluated
them. C-h k etc. report them as loaded but they don't work. I noticed that
the text ";; This buffer is for notes..." could be toggled to
filled-unfilled with M-q and C-x M-q but not other text. Maybe it has to do
with fontification or someething. Turnig of global fontification didn't help
either though.
Build is:
This is GNU Emacs 22.0.93.1 (i386-mingw-windows98.2222)of 2007-01-26 on NEUTRINO

Sorry. False alarm. The fact that it worked on a comment in lisp interactive
mode was a clue. I use text mode more than 95% of the time so I didn't stop
to think how useless my function would be when I tested on randomly typed
strings in the context of *scratch*. As soon as I did M-x text-mode in
*scratch* the function worked of course, even on the lisp code.
