In the mode where zone is dropping z's down the screen, there are horizontal stripes, because the buffer is full of trailing whitespace. A quick fix for this would probably be to locally bind show-trailing-whitespace to nil while zone is running. thanks for the suggestion. i have let-bound show-trailing-whitespace to nil in `zone'. perhaps this fix will be both quick and enduring. thi
