bug#52964: whitespace-mode prevents (set-display-table-slot standard-display-table ...) setting correctly

[Ben Sferrazza]

I’m sorry. Disregard. I realize now that the whitespace-mode is affecting the buffer-display-table.

Emacs 27.2 on CentOS 8 in terminal -nw mode

 

If whitespace-mode is enabled, setting standard-display-table characters such as

 

(set-display-table-slot standard-display-table 'vertical-border ?\u2503)

 

doesn’t proper apply. This occurs if these is set before or after whitespace-mode is enabled.
