Hello,
is there a simple way to add characters/symbols to the fringes, like
the arrows indicating that a line continues on to the next line.
M-x apropos fringe
only seems to give functions related to the width and visibility of
the fringes.
Regards Joakim

I believe you need to use an overlay (which is how Gnus does it --
take a look at `gnus-summary-set-article-display-arrow'). Overlays
are described in the elisp manual, and my quick glance at the page
doesn't make adding chars to the fringe appear "simple", alas.
Maybe you'll see something I didn't.

Thank's for the suggestions - but I must agree with

and think I will leave it at that.
