I've been writing ring buffers wrong all these years

If the plastic bit at the end falls off, just cut off the frayed part and dip the end into molten wax from a candle. I can't say I've tried it yet though, even that's so much trouble that I just live with the frayed end.

Heat-shrink tubing is perfect for replacing shoelace ends, if you happen to have some lying around (or have a friend who tinkers with electronics you can blag a bit off).

Nice idea, if the color works for you.

Edit: I see it comes in clear, which would be perfect. I'll have to pick me up some of that.
