Code that fits a frame to its buffer measures line length, and a very long first line leads to wasted frame space. Here is an example, with C-h f: some-very-very-long-function-name is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `some-very-long-library-name.el'. Currently, that text all appears on the same line. Please wrap it to the standard max length.
