Now we're getting somewhere... What follows is -definitely- emacs related
and I'll be happy to take it "off-list" if someone's willing to help. I'm
an emacs newbie (other than as a simple text editor user) and the last
time I did any lisp programming was probably 25 years ago.
How do I make the zebra stripes darker?
Why, when I set zebra-stripe-height to 1 do they appear, but when I set
them to 3 they vanish (or maybe not, my eyes are old enough that they may
actually be there - see question 1 above).
How do I tell it to NOT write the 'end' after the last line number (not
the end in my pro file but the end in the line number column)?
What do I type to execute the ps-setup function that shows what the
current setup is? I tried M-x ps-setup but it simply says [no match]
I've read the ps-print.el file and I think I can make some of the code
changes (I think I know what I need to do to make the zebra stripes
darker) but do I need to then somehow compile the new .el file?
Thanks!
Bruce
