this mean? How can I turn it off?
It's probably "signs" (:help sign). To remove all signs:
:sign unplace *
Some plugin must have turned it on.

Yep ... that fixed it. Thanks! I've been using the built-in defaults. Up
until last night, I didn't even have a .vimrc file with any special
options. I think it's coming in with the default syntax coloring. It
does it on Perl, Ruby and bash files but not on R code. On C code, it
does some other things with "context". If it matters, I built from
source on Gentoo with the following options set: "bash-completion cscope
gpm nls perl python ruby vim-pager vim-with-x".
It also does this on CygWin's "vim". That I didn't build; it comes in
binary form from the CygWin distribution.
