#+begin_quote alphapapa What would be useful would be if Emacs/Org could be configured to wrap prose lines but not, e.g. tables and code blocks. I don't think such functionality exists in Emacs now, but here's a new package that may be relevant: https://github.com/luisgerhorst/virtual-auto-fill #+end_quote
That would be useful. mixed-pitch-mode already distinguishes codelike from proselike. Which might help apply virtual-auto-fill only to prose-like. https://gitlab.com/jabranham/mixed-pitch Seems this should be an Org feature, since it wants to combine prose, tables and code. #+begin_quote alphapapa As well, it might be good to discuss on emacs-devel whether a feature could be developed to truncate/wrap lines selectively; maybe font-locking could be used to apply text properties to disable wrapping dynamically (assuming that a feature could be developed to wrap based on a certain text property). Then we could have the best of both worlds, and solve an existing problem, viz. that tables and code gets wrapped when visual-line-mode is enabled. #+end_quote text-mode doesn't recognize org-mode tables or code blocks. Why would it need selective truncation?
