nice stuff. My .emacs keeps the mode line, which I like, but turns off the scrollbars and menu bars, and sets a wide fringe (though not quite as wide as shown). I don't like text jammed right up to the edge of the window.

Anyone know how to achieve a "fringe" on the top and bottom? And also how to do it in xterm windows?



Just discovered, you can create a "fringe" in xterm by the -b option:

  -b number
      This option specifies the size of the inner border (the
      distance between the outer edge of the characters and the
      window border) in pixels.  That is the vt100 internalBorder
      resource.  The default is ``2''.
