BTW, I now understand that the line length is not changeable per the FAQ. I am very disappointed in the development team's apparent disregard for user preference. Lailah replied: > Did you try Dconf / Gconf editors? There's some hidden settings. ;-) By my reference to Gconf, I'm clearly aware of it. But finding anything in there seems to require some guidance. If there are hidden settings, what are they? Where are they documented? I followed-up with: > And at least one of [the Gconf parameters] mentioned in the FAQ > doesn't seem to work for me.
