I need refill-mode's feature of constantly reformatting
text when I type new characters.

But, I don't want it to eliminate hard returns in order
to make lines be filled up more.

I cannot type short lines

like
this 
right
here.

Can I fix this?

Chris

P.S. My main goal with refill-mode is the strengthen auto-fill-mode
so hard returns are *added* more often when necessary.  I never
want to *remove* hard returns however.

Really?  What happens if you want to remove some words in a paragraph?

Does (setq use-hard-newlines t) help?

| use-hard-newlines's value is nil
|
| Documentation:
| Non-nil means to distinguish hard and soft newlines.
| When this is non-nil, the functions `newline' and `open-line' add the
| text-property `hard' to newlines that they insert.  Also, a line is
| only considered as a candidate to match `paragraph-start' or
| `paragraph-separate' if it follows a hard newline.  Newlines not
| marked hard are called "soft", and are always internal to
| paragraphs.  The fill functions always insert soft newlines.
|
| Each buffer has its own value of this variable.

use-hard-newlines set to non-nil value worked great!!!

Sorry, I mean I never want Emacs to *automatically* remote
hard returns.. but I will myself of course.

use-hard-newlines means that refill.el will remove newlines, too, but
only those newlines that were automatically added in the first place.

I think that's the right behavior, and better than what you want.

Since you're happy, you appear to agree with me :-)
