The default is a little more complex: The width of left and right fringe together must equal the width of a whole number of default column widths, but be at least 8 pixels each. If your default frame font is 7 pixels wide, 2 x 7 is below the minimum 2 x 8, so we have to take 3 x 7 pixels, giving 10 pixels for the left and 11 pixels for the right fringe. -- Kim F.
