19:34 UTC Revision 1 . . . . Marcin BorkowskiSince Emacs 24 (or so), Polish-speaking users got a very nice gift: a function called fill-single-char-nobreak-p, which can be put into fill-nobreak-predicate. It prevents Emacs from breaking a line after a one-letter word when filling, which is a rule in Polish typography. Of course, when writing in LaTeX, it doesn’t matter at all, since then you use ties (tildes) to prevent breaks anyway (and there is an Emacs library called sierotki.el, which means “little orphans” in Polish, to insert those ties automatically). When writing emails (with hard line-breaks), however, this is a very useful thing.
