Oh, very useful, and vim-like as well.. very nice. Although what I had in mind was something that would display permanently and that would refresh itself automatically when the cursor is moved, similar to Vim's 'statusline' items 'l' and 'v'. Since I already use Ctrl-G as my screen escape key, I need to do a Ctrl-g g, of course. > Also, thanks for testing the patch. You're welcome.
