This is obviously = straight forward, but I am wondering about the best line breaking = approach to use. In my LaTeX docs I maintain one physical line per = sentence [1]. This way, when I change one word in a paragraph, it = affects only one line, and looking for differences between versions is = easy. Otherwise, when using fill-paragraph for instance, one gets messy = changes of the file, as the one word change can influence the whole = paragraph. Therefore, as I mentioned, in LaTeX I use visual-line-mode and I insert = manually line breaks at the end of sentences (or where *I* find = appropriate). What would be the best practice for org? I understand that = visual-line-mode has some problems when it comes to tables... What other = issues are there? What do you do when you keep your org file under VC?=20= Thanks in advance, Dror [1] http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/4378/412=
