Re: modeline-string variables

jpw> Is the idea of customizable modeline-string variables any jpw> good? Is it worth applying to all, or most minor modes? I like it. Modeline real estate is at a premium, even if we do get scrollable modelines from Didier. The docstring needs improvement though. Note that (1) the mode indicator string normally should begin with a space, (2), you can disable the indicator entirely with the empty string, and (3) that empty string should be empty, and not contain a single space. I kinda like the name "font-lock-modeline-indicator" but not all that strongly. "-string" has the advantage of making the type clear. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Don't ask how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
