Prompted from the latest #Emacs Canvas patch discussion, me and @minad@mastodon.world worked on making canvas work in display margins. We wondered if it would work in the mode-line, and voila it does! Look at that looping magical thing in the mode-line. The best part is that none of this is memory intensive or laggy anymore :D

@divyaranjan@mathstodon.xyz @minad@mastodon.world okay I guess. What would be really impressive would be animated nyan cat in the modeline! Joking around of course. Fantastic stuff!

@divyaranjan@mathstodon.xyz @minad@mastodon.world Great stuff! If I am to understand correctly, the canvas patch makes graphics stuff work in emacs much smoother? Either way, I eagerly wait for this to get merged to master soon!

@divyaranjan@mathstodon.xyz @minad@mastodon.world If this can get me some party parrot action in the modeline, I would jump for joy! Nothing makes my soul shine more than the party parrot :)
