This has nothing to do with "rigid scrolling" (or I don't understand
this concept), and everything with `right-margin-goal-column' which
is a logical right edge of the screen for R2L display.
In a wide screen the above will be shown as:
+------------------------------------------------------------+
| NI SELIF EHT TUP|
|/dir1/sdr2/sdr3 |
| MEHT EKAT LLIW I DNA|
+------------------------------------------------------------+
In a less wide screen it will be shown as:
+----------------------------+
| NI SELIF EHT TUP|
|/dir1/sdr2/sdr3 |
| MEHT EKAT LLIW I DNA|
+----------------------------+
In a wide screen with `right-margin-goal-column` set to 30:
+------------------------------------------------------------+
| NI SELIF EHT TUP |
|/dir1/sdr2/sdr3 |
| EHT EKAT LLIW I DNA |
+------------------------------------------------------------+
I hope this is clearer.
Ehud.
