Subject: bug#25208: 24.5; man output uses wrong width
Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2016 14:08:13 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k2b1pcg2.fsf@dog.fritz.box> (raw)


I use a wide display and Emacs full-screen.

- emacs -Q
- Make the Emacs frame full-screen, so it is wider than high and shows
  only one window.
- M-x man RET ps RET -- any command works

Now the frame will be split into two windows side by side, one showing
the man page of `ps`. The man page will contain long lines, which are
truncated instead of wrapped around. You can see the whole lines, when
you scroll horizontally, of course.

This will not happen, if the frame is already split horizontally in two
equal wide windows. When you move the vertical divider to the left or
right and invoke another man command, you can see, that man always uses
the width of the starting window instead of the target (displaying)
window.
