I can add things to the mode-line is the following way. =20 =20 (setq mode-line-format (list "Indc " mode-line-format)) (force-mode-line-update) But also require a way for the user to acknowledge the indicator and be able to switch the indicator off - returning the mode-line=20 as original. What kind of indications would work well in getting user attention?
