Subject: Make modeline better
X-Git-Url: https://git.earman.xyz/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f06aaac16082e01158954d1e3a3e877277a2e2af;p=emacsinit.git

Make modeline better

Inactive buffers blended into the text of the buffer below them.  Can't use
inverse-video in mode-line-active due to the border becoming white, making the
modelines different apparent sizes.
