When opening mutliple windows in that frame, I see these $ signs refresh often which is visually distracting. I'm not sure what they're called, so I'm having a hard time figuring out how to configure them.

FYI on GUI frames the indicators appear in the fringe, and can be configured like so:

(push '(truncation nil nil) ;; no truncation indicators
      ;; '(truncation nil right-arrow) ;; right indicator only
      ;; '(truncation left-arrow nil) ;; left indicator only
      ;; '(truncation left-arrow right-arrow) ;; default
      fringe-indicator-alist)))

/u/AkibAzmain has your solution for terminal frames.

For more info:

  • C-h i g (emacs)Line Truncation
  • C-h i g (elisp)Truncation
  • C-h i g (elisp)Display Tables

Sublime! Thanks for the pointers on how I can get more information on it as well!
