emacs config

I use Emacs in console. The linum-mode displays the line numbers just well. However, in the console, there is no space between the line numbers and the text content, which makes it a little messy some times. How to add a space between the line numbers and text content in Emacs?

 If you are using the linum-mode for displaying the line numbers, you can define your own linum-format to specify the format by adding the space in your ~/.emacs:

(require 'linum)
(global-linum-mode t)
;; use customized linum-format: add a addition space after the line number
(setq linum-format (lambda (line) (propertize (format (let ((w (length (number-to-string (count-lines (point-min) (point-max)))))) (concat "%"
                                                                                                                                           (number-to-string w) "d ")) line) 'face 'linum)))

(require 'package)
(setq package-archives '(("gnu"   . "http://mirrors.cloud.tencent.com/elpa/gnu/")
                         ("melpa" . "http://mirrors.cloud.tencent.com/elpa/melpa/")))
