+1: Cavalier, that's a compliment.

He also said "... if you don't even know ..." which you don't
quote. And you also spell out a possible (rude) interpretation,
even though you say that wasn't the point. That means that
interpretation is possible and close at hand.
And - hiding the fringes. Is that really considered "advanced"? If
it can be achieved with one line of Elisp, I don't think it is
especially advanced or in any way dangerous to configure.

I have read the Emacs manual - twice. And the white book on Emacs
that O'Reilly.
If the fringes were mentioned in those books, I have no problem
with that because my memory is not perfect.

I'm not wasting anyone's time because I'm only in charge of my own
time.

No, that is not what happened at all. I asked the question and got
help, as you saw. Eli's answer was helpful as well, until it
turned rude.

Eli's answer were helpful *and* rude. There was a helpful part,
*and* a rude part. But there is no balance in that. You can't help
me, and then be rude, and think everything's OK. It doesn't matter
how much you help me: I don't accept rudeness.
