Can I break the long line in emacs (non windows) to the next line?


enter image description here

With emacs (non windows), I see '$' mark at the end of the line when the terminal width is narrow. Is there a way to break the long line to the next line instead of showing the '$' mark?

ADDED

M-x auto-fill-mode works fine for text-mode, but with org-mode, the $ mark remains with the auto-fill-mode.


Solution

  • You can get emacs to break long lines into multiple shorter lines with M-x fill-paragraph or M-x fill-region. You can also make this the default behavior with M-x auto-fill-mode.
