   In emacs, can I set it up to START with AUTO-FILL-MODE on already instead 
   of having to set it each time I'm in it?  Is there a command line switch 
   or setenv variable I can use?  Thanks!

Try this (maybe without the tab-width stuff).

(setq default-major-mode 'indented-text-mode)
(setq text-mode-hook
      '(lambda ()
	 (setq tab-width 8)
	 (auto-fill-mode 1)))
