ediff line wrap

ediff line wrap

[Rares Vernica]

Hi,

How can I set ediff not to wrap the long lines?

Right now, instead of printing an incomplete line, it prints the line on 
multiple screen-line.

Thanks,
Ray

My crystal ball says you are running ediff with the A and B buffers
displayed side-by-side, so you should set truncate-partial-width-windows
to nil.

Hi,

Setting truncate-partial-width-windows to nil will have effect on all 
the windows, regardless is they are ediff windows or not.

I would like this to be set only for ediff windows.

Thanks,
Ray

No, it affects only those windows whose width is less than the full
frame's width.  Do you indeed have many such windows in your session?
If not (most users don't), the effect will be close to what you want.
