Subject: to wrap or not to wrap (for org-mode)
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:35:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <F869D64F-8D23-4262-985F-C4A60740FC56@nf.mpg.de> (raw)
Hello,
this is a topic which might be related to Aquamacs and not limited to
org-mode so I posted to both lists - sorry for the hassle.
Aquamacs 1.8a, org-mode 6.28b
Aquamacs offers (Options Menu): Hard Word Wrap, Soft Word Wrap and
Auto Word Wrap. I think Soft Word Wrap is very convenient for writing
text (for html-export) in org-mode, however, when comparing different
versions of one document (from a subversion repository), finding
differences is cumbersome for long-ish paragraphs as the granularity
for comparisons is typically line-based. Another reason, why Soft Word
Wrap (in its current incarnation?) maybe is not ideal for org-mode is
the formatting of plain lists:
- this is a list entry going on going on and going on
and its second line should start with this type of
indention
- the next list item
I found that M-q (fill-paragraph-or-region) sometimes will give me the
proper indention in lists such as the above, and sometimes there is no
indention. Things really get weired, if lines in a paragraph (with-
new lines) have leading blanks - no wrap at all, the same effect if a
"file:myimage.png" ends a paragraph.
Any advice on a suitable mix of wrap options (or other workarounds) is
appreciated.
Warm regards,
Stefan
