These should mention what value of fill-column disables it.
And if there are multiple values that could disable it, which is more
efficient.
Or, if disabling fill-column is to be achieved by other means, than
tampering with fill-column, then mention them.
Thank you.
(info "(emacs) Fill Commands")
The maximum line width for filling is specified by the buffer-local
variable ‘fill-column’. The default value (*note Locals::) is 70. The
easiest way to set ‘fill-column’ in the current buffer is to use the
command ‘C-x f’ (‘set-fill-column’). With a numeric argument, it uses
that as the new fill column. With just ‘C-u’ as argument, it sets
‘fill-column’ to the current horizontal position of point.
fill-column is a variable defined in ‘C source code’.
Original value was 70
Automatically becomes buffer-local when set.
This variable is safe as a file local variable if its value
satisfies the predicate ‘integerp’.
You can customize this variable.
Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 18.
Documentation:
Column beyond which automatic line-wrapping should happen.
Interactively, you can set the buffer local value using C-x f.
(Breaking off this into a separate bug from #44232.)
