The folowing is in my .emacs file:

    (setq default-major-mode 'text-mode)
    
    (setq text-mode-hook
      '(lambda () 
         (auto-fill-mode 1)
         (auto-save-mode 0)
       )
    )

Now when I bring up a file, emacs DOES place me in text-mode, and it
DOES turn on auto-fill-mode automatically, but it DOESN'T turn off
auto-save-mode.   I'm running emacs version 18.52 on the NeXT.

From the documentation of auto-save-mode:

	auto-save-mode:
	Toggle auto-saving of contents of current buffer.
	With arg, turn auto-saving on if arg is positive, else off.

Now, the question is, does Emacs consider 0 to be a positive number
or not. I think it does. I would -1 instead of 0 if I were you.
