This is not possible with the '-f' CMD-line option. So how can I start Emacs in 'auto-fill-mode 70'? My e-mail client invokes emacs as the editor and so I want it to wrap lines at 70 Chars. At the moment I am breaking line manually :-( I hope someone can help me.
Create a ~/.emacs file with the following lines: (setq default-major-mode 'text-mode) (add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'auto-fill-mode 70) If you plan on using emacs a lot, I would install dotfile-emacs... It is a good starting point to customizing emacs. Hope this helps! Dennis -- Dennis Kelly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Network Adminstrator College of Engineering, MSU 353-4844 (phone) 222-5875 (pager)
