Subject: bug#22303: 24.5; toggle-truncate-lines not mentioned in docstring for truncate-lines nor in elisp manual
Date: Mon, 4 Jan 2016 10:30:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <568A3BA9.8000300@lsv.fr> (raw)
In general, changing the value of `truncate-lines' should be done via
`toggle-truncate-lines' not by `(setq truncate-lines ..)'
However the documentation string for `truncate-lines' does not mention
the existence of `toggle-truncate-lines', nor is it mentioned in the
elisp manual (section "37.3 Truncation").
It seems that modifying `truncate-lines' with just `(setq ..)' may
suffer from redisplay problems, see
http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/19228 for a way to trip the
problem from emacs -Q.
