+ ** Controlling the left and right fringe widths.
+ 
+ The left and right fringe widths can now be controlled by setting the
+ `left-fringe' and `right-fringe' frame parameters to an integer value
+ specifying the width in pixels.  The default is 8 pixels.  Setting the
+ width to 0 effectively removes the corresponding fringe.
+ The actual fringe widths may deviate from the specified widths, since
+ the combined fringe widths must match an integral number of columns.
+ The extra width is distributed evenly between the left and right fringe.
+ For force a specific fringe width, specify the width as a negative
+ integer (if both widths are negative, only the left fringe gets the
+ specified width). 
+ 
  ** hide-ifdef-mode now uses overlays rather than selective-display
  to hide its text.  This should be mostly transparent but slightly
  changes the behavior of motion commands line C-e and C-p.
