It's actually not the color of the fringe that bothers me, it is the
little 'wrap' characters that I don't like. I'm looking at a file where
the lines are about 500 char long, and the little clockwise and
counterclockwise symbols that tell me the line is wrapping bother me.
They are visual nose that I don't need. I _know_ the line is wrapping.
I can't find where to turn those off either, or what the glyphs are
called.
