But I didn't use your "testing" line, your OP just said: "2. Type a line of text that extends beyond (window-width) with auto-fill mode is disabled so that continuation arrows are displayed in the fringes." I just typed in random characters. But when I try now, I can't see any difference if the second character is a space or not. Sorry for the noise. Jan D.
