Vertical lines on sides

Vertical lines on sides

[Count Dracula]

Version 21.4 (and maybe some earlier versions) of emacs shows vertical
black lines on the left and right side of the whole emacs frame. Is
there a way of removing these lines?

Thanks,
Levent

(when (facep 'fringe) (set-face-background 'fringe (p-back palette)))

(defadvice set-background-color (after sbc-fringe last (color-name) activate)
  (when (facep 'fringe) (set-face-background 'fringe color-name)))

You can also customize-variable fringe-mode and set it to "No fringes".

Perhaps I'll sleep on your face.
That will sure show you.

They are called ``fringes´´ and their use is documented. Could be a

	(fringe-mode "none")

makes them stay away.
