This information is only displayed if the echo area is not used +for anything else (but if you switch frame/window, it will replace whatever +message is currently displayed). + +NOTE: +feebleline.el will look considerably better with the following +settings: + + (window-divider-mode t) + (setq window-divider-default-bottom-width 1) + (setq window-divider-default-places (quote bottom-only)) + +But this mode does not work for all EMACS versions and may not work with +terminal EMACS (but I haven't checked). If you're on GUI EMACS and your +version supports it, just place the following in your init file: + + (feebleline-default-settings) + +Otherwise, do (feebleline-mode t) instead, but be warned that I'm not sure +if it will look good. + Screenshot:  |
