This recipe works for me in Emacs 26: emacs -Q Type: (setq visual-line-fringe-indicators '(left-curly-arrow right-curly-arrow)) Evaluate the above sexp by putting point at its end and pressing "C-x C-e" or C-j. M-x visual-line-mode RET If it doesn't work for you, try toggling visual-line-mode after setting visual-line-fringe-indicators, maybe you set the variable after visual-line-mode was already turned on.
