+@node Fringe Bitmaps
+@section Fringe Bitmaps
+@cindex Fringe Bitmaps
+
+  The @dfn{fringe bitmaps} are tiny icons Emacs displays in the fringe
+on a window system to indicate truncated or continued lines, buffer
+boundaries, overlay arrow, etc.  The fringe bitmaps are shared by all
+frames and windows.
+
+  You can redefine the built-in fringe bitmaps, and you can define new
+fringe bitmaps.  Emacs can handle a maximum of 255 different fringe
+bitmaps.
+
+A fringe bitmap is identified by an opaque integer, but Lisp code
+should use the following names defined by @code{(require 'fringe)}:
+
+Truncation and continuation line bitmaps:
+@code{left-truncation-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{right-truncation-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{continued-line-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{continuation-line-fringe-bitmap}.
+
+Buffer indication bitmaps:
+@code{up-arrow-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{down-arrow-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{top-left-angle-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{top-right-angle-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{bottom-left-angle-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{bottom-right-angle-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{left-bracket-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{right-bracket-fringe-bitmap}.
+
+Empty line indication bitmap:
+@code{empty-line-fringe-bitmap}.
+
+Overlay arrow bitmap:
+@code{overlay-arrow-fringe-bitmap}.
+
+Bitmaps for displaying the cursor in right fringe:
+@code{filled-box-cursor-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{hollow-box-cursor-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{hollow-square-fringe-bitmap}, @code{bar-cursor-fringe-bitmap},
+@code{hbar-cursor-fringe-bitmap}.
+
+Fringe bitmap opaque value indicating that no fringe bitmap is present:
+@code{no-fringe-bitmap}.
+
+Fringe bitmap opaque value indicating a reference to an undefined bitmap:
+@code{undef-fringe-bitmap}.
+
+  To display an specific fringe bitmap on a line in an Emacs window,
+use it as a @code{left-fringe} or @code{right-fringe} specifier in the
+@code{display} property of some text that is displayed on that line
+(@pxref{Display Property}).
+
+@defun define-fringe-bitmap bits &optional height width align bitmap
+Define a new fringe bitmap, or change an existing bitmap.
+
+The argument @code{bits} is either a string or a vector of integers,
+where each element (typically) corresponds to one row of the bitmap,
+and each bit of an integer corresponds to one pixel of the bitmap.
+
+The optional argument @code{height} specifies the height of the bitmap.
+If @code{height} is @code{nil}, the length of @code{bits} is used.
+
+The optional argument @code{width} specifies the width of the bitmap;
+it must be an integer between 1 and 16, or @code{nil} which defaults
+to a width of 8 pixels.
+
+The optional argument @code{align} may be one of @code{top},
+@code{center}, or @code{bottom}, indicating the positioning of the
+bitmap relative to the rows where it is used; the default is to center
+the bitmap.
+
+The @code{align} argument may also be a list @code{(ALIGN PERIODIC)}
+where @code{ALIGN} is intepreted as described above, and if
+@code{PERIODIC} is non-@code{nil} it specifies that the @code{bits} should
+be repeated until a bitmap of the specified @code{height} is created.
+
+The optional argument @code{bitmap} specifies the opaque integer that
+identifies an existing bitmap to redefine.
+
+The return value is a new opaque integer identifying the new bitmap number,
+or @code{nil} of there are no more free bitmap slots.
+@end defun
+
+@defun destroy-fringe-bitmap bitmap
+Destroy the fringe bitmap identified by the opaque integer
+@code{bitmap}.  If @code{bitmap} identifies a standard fringe bitmap,
+the original built-in bitmap is restored.

+@defun set-fringe-bitmap-face bitmap &optional face
+Set face for a specific fringe bitmap @code{bitmap} to the face
+specified by the argument @code{face}.
+If @code{face} is @code{nil}, reset face to default @code{fringe} face.

+
+  The value of the @code{:width}, @code{:align-to}, @code{:height},
+and @code{:ascent} properties can be a (trivial) expression
+which is evaluated during redisplay.  The result of the evaluation is
+used as an absolute number of pixels.
+
+  The following expressions are supported:
+
+@example
+@group
+  EXPR ::= NUM | (NUM) | UNIT | ELEM | POS | IMAGE | FORM
+  NUM  ::= INTEGER | FLOAT | SYMBOL
+  UNIT ::= in | mm | cm | width | height
+  ELEM ::= left-fringe | right-fringe | left-margin | right-margin
+        |  scroll-bar | text
+  POS  ::= left | center | right
+  FORM ::= (NUM . EXPR) | (OP EXPR ...)
+  OP   ::= + | -
+@end group
+@end example
+
+  The form @var{NUM} specifies a fractional width or height of the
+default frame font size.  The form @code(@var{NUM})} specifies an
+absolute number of pixels.  If a symbol @var{SYMBOL} is specified, its
+buffer-local variable binding is used.
+
+  The @code{in}, @code{mm}, and @code{cm} units specifies the number
+of pixels per inch, milli-meter, and centi-meter, resp.  The
+@code{width} and @code{height} units correspond to the width and
+height of the current face font.  An image specification @var{IMAGE}
+corresponds to the width or height of the image.
+
+  The @code{left-fringe}, @code{right-fringe}, @code{left-margin},
+@code{right-margin}, @code{scroll-bar}, and @code{text} elements
+specify to the width of the corresponding area of the window.
+
+  The @code{left}, @code{center}, and @code{right} positions can be
+used with @code{:align-to} to specify a position relative to the left
+edge, center, or right edge of the text area.
+
+  One of the above window elements (except @code{text}) can also be
+used with @code{:align-to} to specify that the position is relative to
+the left edge of the given area.  Once the base offset for a relative
+position has been set (by the first occurrence of one of these
+symbols), further occurences of these symbols are interpreted as the
+width of the specified area.  For example, to align to the center of
+the left-margin, use
+
+@example
+:align-to (+ left-margin (0.5 . left-margin))
+@end example
+
+  If no specific base offset is set for alignment, it is always relative
+to the left edge of the text area.  For example, @samp{:align-to 0} in a
+header-line aligns with the first text column in the text area.
+
+  The value of the form @code(@var{NUM} . @var{EXPR})} is the value of
+@var{NUM} multiplied by the value of the expression @var{EXPR}.  For
+example, @samp{(2 . in)} specifies a width of 2 inches, while
+@samp{(0.5 . IMAGE)} specifies half the width (or height) of the
+specified image.
+
+  The form @code{(+ @var{EXPR} ...)} adds up the value of the
+expressions.  The form @code{(- @var{EXPR} ...)} negates or subtracts
+the value of the expressions.
