Looks at that I actually missed you point :), but on the other hand, you
actually don't have to use any other filling command to fill the selection, at
least in Emacs 24.2, you could use "M-q" (`fill-paragraph') to fill the region
because `fill-paragraph' now checks whether there is an active region,
if so, it will fill the region instead of filling the paragraph. But my problem
is not here, it is that if I insert enough text in the middle of a line, the
current line will be broken into two lines, but unfortunately, not two physical
lines, it just becomes two visual lines, I mean, it is still one line, and
since I'm using Vim key bindings (the wonderful Evil package), if I hit "j" I
will be moving to next physical line not visual line, and I have to hit "gj" if
I want to move to next visual line which is a pain. Maybe I really need to
configure my "Evil" to move visual lines when "j" and "k" are pressed.

Thanks,
York
