[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 464 bytes --]

Hello,
I noticed that org-mode buffers has a funny behavior with regards to line
wrapping: When the cursor crosses the edge of the frame, instead of placing
a "long line" marker and moving to the next line, the entire buffer is
shifted to the left and the cursor remains on the same line.
Can this behavior be disabled, and replaced the the same behavior as
in fundamental text editing? It is really annoying, especially when using
auto-fill mode.

Thanks,
  Guy.

  M-x toggle-truncate-lines          does help?
  
  so that "Truncate long lines disabled".
  
  Or place in your .emacs:
  (setq truncate-lines t)
  
  cheers,
  Giovanni

    Yes, that seems to do the trick - Thanks!
    Btw, why is this option the default in org-mode? It is the opposite of
    the fundamental mode.

      Because tables and source code look bad with lines wrapped around.
      I have put a feature request into Emacs, asking for truncate-lines
      to become a text property, then I could exclude tables from wrapping -  
      but until then, I'll keep the truncation default.

      It makes no big difference when using filling, because then you don't
      have long lines that are truncated anyway.  The only lines that won't be
      filled and might get long are headlines.  And those look weird when
      being broken across many lines. (Try it out!)
      
      Bye,
      Tassilo
