 can you provide a screenshot showing a case where org-mode looks ugly

 Thanks!

OK, so I've had a chance to look at this again, and my main concern was
with the width of the TODO state quick-select buffer. Now I see that the
length of the line is dependent on my configuration, so that if I
shorten the todo sequence lines in .emacs it looks far better in the
narrow window.

The only remaining issue is with the agenda view, where my longish TODO
items are truncated in the window, so I either need to use follow mode
or see if one of the wrapping functions will work on this buffer.

Thanks
Paul

 Hey Paul,

 I don't know if this will exactly revert it back to the previous
 behavior, but if you change `split-width-threshold' to a bigger number
 (e.g. 999) than the default it should be more sensible looking.

Thanks Benny, that'll get me going for now.

Would this be a minor fix or a major change do you think? My elisp is
about as competent as my sanskrit I'm afraid...

Add the following to your .emacs file:
(setq split-width-threshold 999)

I actually like the change, but then I'm using a widescreen monitor 
where it makes more sense.

Hey Paul,

Paul Mead paul.d.m...@gmail.com writes:

 Hi,

 I've recently upgraded to Emacs 23, and I'm not at all impressed with
 the vertical split that it seems to prefer when there's supposedly
 enough buffer width to allow it - the Agenda gets squashed up and things
 like the TODO quick selection menus look terrible.

 Is there a way of changing this back to the old behaviour?

I don't know if this will exactly revert it back to the previous
behavior, but if you change `split-width-threshold' to a bigger number
(e.g. 999) than the default it should be more sensible looking.
