Variable: wrap-prefix

wrap-prefix is a buffer-local variable defined in xdisp.c.

Documentation

Prefix prepended to all continuation lines at display time.

The value may be a string, an image, or a stretch-glyph; it is interpreted in the same way as the value of a display text property.

This variable is overridden by any wrap-prefix text or overlay property.

To add a prefix to non-continuation lines, use line-prefix.
