10 | ;;; This file provides functions that | |
495a2b0a | 11 | ;;; automatically scroll the window horizontally when the point moves |
4d235ac7 RS |
12 | ;;; off the left or right side of the window. |
13 | ||
14 | ;;; Once this library is loaded, automatic horizontal scrolling | |
15 | ;;; occurs whenever long lines are being truncated. | |
16 | ;;; To request truncation of long lines, set the variable | |
17 | ;;; Setting the variable `truncate-lines' to non-nil. | |
18 | ;;; You can do this for all buffers as follows: | |
495a2b0a RS |
19 | ;;; |
20 | ;;; (set-default 'truncate-lines t) | |
495a2b0a | 21 | |
4d235ac7 | 22 | ;;; Here is how to do it for C mode only: |
495a2b0a RS |
23 | ;;; |
24 | ;;; (set-default 'truncate-lines nil) ; this is the original value | |
25 | ;;; (defun my-c-mode-hook () | |
26 | ;;; "Run when C-mode starts up. Changes ..." | |
27 | ;;; ... set various personal preferences ... | |
28 | ;;; (setq truncate-lines t)) | |
29 | ;;; (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'my-c-mode-hook) | |
30 | ;;; | |
31 | ;;; | |
4d235ac7 RS |
32 | ;;; As a finer level of control, you can still have truncated lines but |
33 | ;;; without the automatic horizontal scrolling by setting the buffer | |
34 | ;;; local variable `auto-show-mode' to nil. The default value is t. | |
35 | ;;; The command `auto-show-mode' toggles the value of the variable | |
36 | ;;; `auto-show-mode'. | |
