I use auto-fill-mode most of the time.  However, if I'm mixing code
and text, I tend to turn it off.  In that case, it's an easy matter of
hitting M-q (fill-paragraph) every now and again to re-format the
current paragraph.  I often do this without even realising... (just
did it now, in fact :-).

Visual line mode is okay but, as a very long time emacs user, I find
it conflicts with my believes as to what lines are etc.
