Truncate the eshell buffer when it gets larger than
=eshell-buffer-maximum-lines= number of lines. For some reason I have
to use the =eshell-load-hook= instead of just relying on ~eshell.el~
and ~esh-mode.el~ being loaded because it seems that
=with-eval-after-load= loads this file before ~eshell.el~ is actually
loaded.

    (add-to-list 'eshell-output-filter-functions 'eshell-truncate-buffer))

  (add-hook 'eshell-load-hook #'oni:enable-truncating-eshell-buffers)
#+END_SRC

Show the status of each command in the fringe of the eshell buffer.
