For some reason, I can fill a commented paragraph in emacs lisp mode,
text mode, and fundamental mode, but not in org mode. It does
nothing. fill-column is my normal 60. I cannot debug it. Did
something change recently? I use filladapt.
Thanks.

Sorry for the question, but "in emacs lisp mode" is not "in org mode",
is it?
BTW: That's exactly what I use filladapt for. Fill (only) commented
paragraphs.

Sorry, I don't understand your comment at all.

Sorry, I mis-read your mail :-(
I read:
For some reason, I can fill a commented paragraph in emacs lisp mode,
...but somehow the next line slipped through.
Well, I believe the problem is, that we have no simple defined comment
start in Org-mode.
If `#' was the comment start, lines might be wrapped and stop
working. As `#' also starts working directives, e.g. for ditaa and
gnuplot.
In addition, a `#' may occur anywhere in a line but the first non-blank
position and would not start a comment.
Also, imagine a code block like this:
#+begin_src perl
print "This example";
# ...contains a perl comment...
# In deep nested node, this line might wrap, because of the fill column.
#+end_src
Anyway, I believe it could be done - but no one got around and did it
yet. It seems complicated and error prone.
Best wishes
Sebastian

I should have realized that was possibly the problem before posting.
I thought I solved that a long time ago. But I was not able to debug
today.
The following seems to fix the problem without causing any problems.
You have to have my filladapt fixes.
(set (make-local-variable 'comment-start) "#")
In order to fix a bug a long time ago, I had that line for all text
files and not org files. Now I think I can set it for org mode also.
In other words, somebody possibly made a change to org that fixed the
problem.
But I am not capable of investigating it further to make sure today.

Works fine with my filladapt fixes.
Thanks.
