My emacs windows & frames tend to be rather tall (my display is 1200 pixels high), so when I'm focused on the top of a window I often don't notice the mode-line showing me that the window is not the selected one. Ideally, I would like to be able to set the selected window's background color to be different from all non-selected windows. If that's not possible, being able to set the fringe color for just the selected window might help. Thanks, David __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
