I've just tried this and it's fine until I have windows side by side, then it gets confusing as there is no visual seperator between windows. I guess I'd like to be able to specify a width of the fringe, maybe allow different widths for left and right. Is it possible to write to the fringes, say be able to put a 'x' next to a bit of a malformed file?
