Hi. This is an old question and in the past the answer was always "No". Or even "RMS said No". But I wanted to ask again just in case it's different in 23.x or 24.x.

Here it is:

Is there a way to change the behavior of column-number-mode so that the column on the left-hand side of the screen is "column 1" instead of "column 0" ?

Thanks.
