Stallman : > Is there any reason not to set default-indicate-buffer-boundaries > to `left' by default? I strongly prefer `left' myself. When indicators are on both the left and the right, it's harder to keep track of them. I don't understand Luc's complaint about the boundary icons "interfering" with other fringe indicators on the left -- there don't seem to be any common cases where that happens. [`indicate-empty-lines' probably does do a better job of indicating "after eob" space, but I think it's unacceptably annoying given it's current default icon. If the icon was made less in-your-face, it might be acceptable.] -Miles -- Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.
