Yes, the 'padding space removed after multi-column chaacters on Linux' problem still exists. Some people absolutely need this feature, and for some it is a nuisance. I would suggest making this configurable in the preferences menu. The option would allow removing paddig space after all multi-column characters. This is necessary for people reading Asian text. Linux VT automatically adds this space for some multi-column characters (but not for all, unfortunately). On terminals which properly display multi-column characters (I think all At-Spi2 terminals are in this category) there is no padding space after multi-column characters. But because these characters are not multi-column in braille, terminal alignment is messed up braille displays. BRLTTY should also offer an option to add a padding space after each multi-column character so that people who use graphical terminals and care about text alignment, still get their table columns right. -- Aura _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
