Notice the overlay arrow that covered part of the file name: this is a bug, IMHO. If we want to have an arrow pointing out the current line, we should indent the buffer text to the right as many columns as the arrow string takes.
It might be good to do that when overlaying the arrow on a compilation error buffer, but it would be a misfeature to do that when overlaying the arrow on a program file (which was the original use of the overlay arrow). Perhaps we need a user option to control these two features (scrolling and arrow) in a way that would by default prevent scrolling when the arrow is used to show the current line. Also, the arrow feature is not customizable. What about users who will dislike it and would wish to turn it off? I'd probably prefer to turn off the arrow and use just the scrolling, for compilation buffers. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
