Hello The modline of a elisp file in my configuration looks like: UTF8--*-L5716 C14 70% xemacs_init.el (.../oub/xemacs/init) Wed Nov 14 11:27 mailsym (Emacs-Lisp.... Where the last entry starting with the parenthesis contains the mayor mode and all the minor mode. Unfortunately on my 12 inch screen I cannot see all the minor modes. On the other hand, at the top of my window frame sits a string indication the file I am using, that is why I consider the information UTF8--*-L5716 C14 70% xemacs_init.el (.../oub/xemacs/init) Wed Nov 14 11:27 mailsym (Emacs-Lisp.... ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Redundant. How can I configure the modeline such that the file and directory information does not show up and I hopefully can see all my minor modes?
