Well, overlay-arrow-variable-list is apparently intended to be extended. If various commands add their own arrow-wish to this, and only the first gets displayed, it can still be that compile's arrow doesn't appear. And as long as this is not available on text displays it's not so good. I was mistaken however because I'd used the 6 months old standard emacs there. The only thing missing is assigning something like "-->" to overlay-arrow-string, maybe with some face applied. Otoh, it would be the quickest patch to make... Since there can be only one arrow anyway, I wouldn't worry about a new variable, simply assign something to overlay-arrow-position. coralament / best Grötens / liebe Grüße / best regards / elkorajn salutojn Daniel Pfeiffer -- lerne / learn / apprends / läramå / ucz się Esperanto: http://lernu.net/
