Hi all,
I recently configured my emacs with visual alerts for lines longer
than (say) 80 columns. I used two mechanisms for this:
1. the built-in `whitespace-mode', with `whitespace-style' including
the 'lines-tail symbol
2. the fill-column-indicator package, which draws a vertical line
at the 80th column
Unfortunately, neither work well with org-mode:
1. `whitespace-mode' isn't smart enough to realise that a hyperlink
[[http://foo][bar]] only occupies 3 columns of visual display, so
it counts every character as occupying a column, leading to the
`whitespace-line' face being used to highlight more of the end of
the line than it should.
2. fill-column-indicator only displays the vertical line for
fully visible subtrees
I don't know how the display magic in org-mode works, so unfortunately
I've no idea how to address this. Any help gratefully received!
Thanks,
Adam
