I am using the following  to turn off line wrap in all windows.
(setq default-truncate-lines t)

I do not want this as a default in the minibuffer so I wrote the
following elsp to  set the buffer-local variable truncate-lines
in the minibuffer.   Unfortunately this does not work.

Does truncate-lines apply to the minibuffer also?

(defun set-minibuf-truncate()
  "Set the minibuffer to not wrap lines."
  (save-excursion
    (set-buffer (window-buffer (minibuffer-window)))
    (setq truncate-lines nil)))

(set-minibuf-truncate)
