Strange vertical marks in python mode, and the minibuffer too small #816

Dear Steve,

It is the first time I use your emacs configurations. It looks very nice, but I have encountered two problems:

1) It gives me strange vertical marks in python mode 2) The minibuffer only displays half of the characters.

Above is the screenshot with the two problem. Could you help? For your information, I have made no change to your configurations. It was a fresh installation using git clone. My emacs version is 29.0.50 and I am using ubuntu 20.04.4.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards, Fang

Hi! Do you get the same problems with a release version of Emacs? You're running a development snapshot, and it's fairly common to see bugs. Regarding the line, the character used for this is \u254e — perhaps you're using a font configuration that does not have that glyph? (It's defined here)

Do you use any X11 forwarding to retrieve Emacs GUI? I recall that I might have had a similar issue to the mini-buffer display a few years ago...

The strange character is as in #820, which I've closed now because I believe it's due to local font issues, so I'll close this too.
