26 ;;; Commentary:
28 ;; Some text editors save text files with long lines, and they
29 ;; automatically break these lines at whitespace, without actually
30 ;; inserting any newline characters. When doing `M-q' in Emacs, you
31 ;; are inserting newline characters. Longlines mode provides a file
32 ;; format which wraps the long lines when reading a file and unwraps
33 ;; the lines when saving the file. It can also wrap and unwrap
34 ;; automatically as editing takes place.
36 ;; Special thanks to Rod Smith for many useful bug reports.
