on finding the code for Gnus' article displaying

on finding the code for Gnus' article displaying

[Wayne Harris]

I opened a message today and I saw this line break on the first line:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Path:
aioe.org!.POSTED.lXANPjViPmedgxxfcNv0Sw.user.gioia.aioe.org!not-for-mail
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

See this image for a proof:

The source is not like that.  I said ``C-u g'' and saw the line was
broken.  What part of Gnus source code deals with the display of the
message in the article buffer?

There's another imperfection I've been meaning to propose as a fix which
is about the cut-here marks when displayed by Gnus in the article bufer.
After the cut-here-end mark, there's an extra newline being displayed,
which doesn't appear in the source message.  I'd say that's a cosmetic
bug.  I don't think the author intended for that to happen.  So I could
maybe tackle that as well --- at least as a proposal.

Do you have visual-line-mode enabled?

I don't know how to check whether visual-line-mode is enabled in the
article buffer.  I just checked the help and I see you're thinking: if
it's enabled, word-wrap will be true and that would explain the problem.
If that's the case, I can probably find out.  More soon!  Thanks!

It's easy to check. Just type as "C-h v".
In my case, its value is nil.

Thank you!  It turns out it's nil now, but then when I look at the
message again, it's not breaking that line again.  So I think you've
spotted it right --- for some reason visual-line-mode was one when I saw
that message.
