The following test function demonstrates how vertical-motion erroneously adds points when dealing with long lines without spaces that go beyond the window-width:
(defun test ()
(interactive)
(switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "foo.txt"))
(text-mode)
(linum-mode t)
(visual-line-mode t)
(dotimes (i (* (window-width) 4))
(insert ";"))
(dotimes (i 10)
(insert "\n"))
(goto-char (point-min))
(vertical-motion 1)
(message "Second Row + 2 points: %s" (current-column))
(vertical-motion 1)
(message "Third Row + 4 points: %s" (current-column)))
Additional incorrect behavior can be seen by moving the cursor to the beginning of the buffer after running the above test function and evaluating `(vertical-motion 1`). Instead of moving to line number two, the cursor will move to column number 2. I have written a workaround to compensate for the problem -- if point is on the first wrapped line, then ...
(vertical-motion 1)
(when (= (current-column) 2 )
(move-to-column (+ (current-column) (- window-width 2))))
This bug affects the popular functions that rely upon the behavior of vertical-motion -- e.g., scrolling with the mouse; and using the arrow keys to navigate the buffer.
If the wrapped line is at the top of the buffer, and there are many such wrapped lines that don't break nicely at the far right edge (e.g., no space and no tab), then the mouse scroll becomes inoperable unless one uses the scroll bars.
Thanks,
Keith

Fixed in revision 117154 on the emacs-24 branch. The patch is below,
in case you want to try it without waiting for it to be merged to the
trunk.
Thanks.

The `test` function yields the same result with Emacs built (--with-ns) from the Trunk as of May 29, 2014 at 11:18 P.S.T. Approximately when, please, should I expect to see the fix merged into the Trunk?

It was merged to the trunk on May 26, as trunk revision 117154 (yes,
the same revision number as on the emacs-24 branch; it happens).

Do you have revision 117154 in your bzr trunk branch? If you do, you
should see this entry in src/ChangeLog:
2014-05-26 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@gnu.org>
* xdisp.c (move_it_in_display_line_to): Don't record wrap position
if we are iterating over an object that generates glyphs for
marginal areas. (Bug#17585)
With the latest trunk, vertical motion in the foo.txt buffer created
by your recipe works OK interactively (i.e. by using arrow keys or
M-:); it didn't work correctly before. Please try that after your
'test' function finishes.
Your test case, which uses vertical-motion non-interactively, indeed
still moves point horizontally as well, but that's because linum-mode
does its line number display in a post-command hook, so it defers the
initial display of the line numbers until _after_ vertical-motion did
its thing. You can see that by inserting (sit-for 1) before each call
to vertical-motion. So I think this is an unrelated problem; if it
gives you trouble in some real-life use case, please describe that use
case.

Please use the `emacs-24' branch instead, which is the one we're
focusing on right now (and which does have this fix applied).

Eli & Stefan:
My confusion regarding whether the fix for Bug#17585 had been implemented in the version of Emacs Trunk that I've been testing was due to the reason mentioned by Eli below. Indeed, the arrow keys and scrolling with the mouse now work correctly when `visual-line-mode` and `linum-mode` are both active and the line of text (without any spaces) exceeds the `window-width`.
I've been using the following command line prior to building a new Emacs Trunk version, and I believe it gives me the most recent Emacs-24 branch:
bzr branch --stacked bzr://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/emacs/trunk emacs-trunk
`M-x emacs version` yields the following message:
GNU Emacs 24.4.50.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0, NS apple-appkit-1038.36) of 2014-05-29 on MP.local
I am working on writing a custom library that draws a thin vertical line (i.e., "|") and a thin horizontal line (i.e., `underline`), which is compatible with `visual-line-mode` and `linum-mode`. The visual effect is similar to the `crosshairs.el` library, except that mine is done with thin lines only -- i.e., no background highlighting. One of my key functions uses (vertical-motion 1) for every line in the visible window. To deal with the situation best described by Eli (below), I use the following immediately after each execution of (vertical-motion 1):
(when (= (current-column) 2 )
(move-to-column (+ (current-column) (- window-width 2))))
I have not yet done any experimentation with removing the line number overlays for purposes of calculating and placing my cross-hair overlays. My best guess is that adding the line numbers after the cross-hairs have been placed would skew/break the vertical line.
Thanks again for implementing the bug fix. It certainly nice to be able to effectively use the arrow keys and the mouse scroll when dealing with the situation described in the first paragraph above.
Keith

its thing. You can see that by inserting (sit-for 1) before each call
to vertical-motion. So I think this is an unrelated problem; if it
gives you trouble in some real-life use case, please describe that use
case.

> I am working on writing a custom library that draws a thin vertical line (i.e., "|") and a thin horizontal line (i.e., `underline`), which is compatible with `visual-line-mode` and `linum-mode`. The visual effect is similar to the `crosshairs.el` library, except that mine is done with thin lines only -- i.e., no background highlighting. One of my key functions uses (vertical-motion 1) for every line in the visible window. To deal with the situation best described by Eli (below), I use the following immediately after each execution of (vertical-motion 1):

This shouldn't be necessary. Try invoking linum-update (or whatever
function is put by linum-mode on the post-command hook) before/when
you display the buffer for the first time, and I think the problem
should go away. It is caused by the fact that the line numbers are
not displayed until the first command that displays the buffer
finishes, and therefore any functions in that first command will not
be aware that the window has non-zero left margin.
