Subject: 23.1; two common doc strings too wide - shows up in most uses of `C-h m'
Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2009 11:16:41 -0700

These doc strings are much wider than the convention calls for:
 
global-auto-composition-mode (104 chars)
global-font-lock-mode (90 chars; other lines are also too long)
 
These two appear in nearly every use of `C-h m', making the help display
much wider than is called for.

Thanks, I made the lines shorter in the template used for
auto-generated doc strings.
