;;; Commentary:

;; Show an indicator of the status of the last command run in eshell.
;; To use, enable `eshell-fringe-status-mode' in `eshell-mode'.  The
;; easiest way to do this is by adding a hook:

;; : (add-hook 'eshell-mode-hook #'eshell-fringe-status-mode)

;; This mode uses a rather hackish way to try and keep everything
;; working in regard to `eshell-prompt-regexp', so if anything breaks
;; please let me know.
