How to get top and bottom margins in emacs
emacs, user-interface
Solution
I can't find a top-and-bottom-only margin setting, but there is a frame parameter `internal-border-width` which might be sufficient. You would set it for the current frame like so:
(set-frame-parameter nil 'internal-border-width 10)
Problem
how would I get top and bottom margins (like the left and right fringe) when using emacs? I find that having the text start right at the top of the screen is a little uncomfortable when I'm writing or reviewing large blocks of text.
