This is an age old problem that finally did some damage, so I want to
avoid it. I can't remember any previous discussion.

When I am editing a line at the bottom of the screen and that line
'wraps' so that I cannot see more than the first 79 chars, as I use the
Delete key the characters to the right of my delete activity creep left
toward my cursor as the 'delete' eats up characters. Those characters
that are wrapped and are not on my screen when I start deleting do not
creep back onto the screen at this time and trailing blanks appear at
the right end of the screen line. Okay- I would simply expect to see the
trailing characters that are off the screen rejoin the text that I'm
viewing when I press Enter or do some scrolling. But in fact, when the
wrapped line is redisplayed the rightmost characters stay where they are
and those blanks I saw on the screen are now actual spaces in the
text!!!!

Is there an easy trick to avoid replacing these rightmost characters
with blank spaces? I can understand that maybe the 'wrapped' characters
will not scroll onto the screen as I am pressing the Delete key, but I
would expect the line to eventually rejoin, perhaps when I press ENTER
or scroll.
