I was asked to DTRT and confirmed that sql-mode was behaving the same as c-mode did. So I felt sql-mode was DTRT. I took a step back and decided I'd try running this past the knowledgable masses. With auto-fill-mode set off, I type the following in a sql-mode buffer: -- This comment should be filled to multiple lines If I then type M-q (fill-paragraph), I get: -- This comment should be filled to multiple lines If, however, I have set `auto-fill-mode' on, I would get: -- This comment should be filled to -- multiple lines Which is what I want. Is this a bug in `fill-paragraph' or is there something I can do in sql-mode to get the desired `fill-paragraph' behavior? BTW, the bug report and my testing was CVS emacs 21.3.50. I don't have an older emacs to test it. TIA --M __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail SpamGuard - Read only the mail you want. http://antispam.yahoo.com/tools
