This is indeed a problem with uwm as far as I can tell. Emacs doesn't
set any maximum size hints, and other applications I've tried also
can't be resized greater than the width of the screen. A simple
solution might be to use the command: M-x set-variable <RET>
truncate-lines <RET> t <RET> This will cause lines wider than the
emacs screen not to be wrapped around. The keys ^X < and ^X > can be
used to scroll horizontally.
