Agreed. In addition, some GUI front-ends to debuggers mark the locations of breakpoints and the current execution line with thin horizontal lines drawn across the scroll bar (this makes getting to those places by dragging the scroll-bar thumb a whole lot easier). I'm not saying Emacs should have the exact same implementation, but perhaps something similar. > Perhaps these things are possible in Emacs 21 with its image support Emacs 21. > The fringe might be a suitable place to put them > > However, while I have frequently experimented with the lisp interface of Emacs, > I'm not familiar with its C code so this part would be outside my scope. It would be nice to have a Lisp API to put images on the fringe, I think. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
