Fwd: xemacs line & column numbers

Claude - Thanks for your follow-up. Please don't drop xemacs-beta from the reply address. There are lots of people on the list with lots of contributions to make. So, it sounds to me like your modeline format has too much stuff in it, and the line/column info gets pushed off the screen. Is that correct? - Vin ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Claude LEMOINE <claude.lemoine3(a)wanadoo.fr&gt; Date: Jan 18, 2008 4:40 PM Subject: xemacs line & column numbers To: acs(a)alumni.princeton.edu Thank You for your so prompt answer !

(I never used FC7) It is started with: xemacs -fn -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-180-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* -geometry 132x46+150+0 ~/ The xemacs -vanilla shows correctly the lines and column numbers. even after a [load-file custom.el] (the one attached) They do not show at the same place as before in the bar, though. When started with: xemacs -geometry 132x46+150+0 ~/ the numbers do not show either. (the custom file is then automatically loaded). same place as above in the bar. The vanilla option seems to provide a better flavour :>] Regards `column-number-mode' is a variable declared in Lisp. -- loaded from "/builddir/build/BUILD/xemacs-21.5.28/lisp/simple.elc" Value: t Documentation: *Non-nil means display column number in mode line. `line-number-mode' is a variable declared in Lisp. -- loaded from "/builddir/build/BUILD/xemacs-21.5.28/lisp/simple.elc" Value: t Documentation: *Non-nil means display line number in modeline.
