No, it reflects Pravin's `better'.  I just wanted to make sure that
people know that a one pixel space between adjacent glyphs is
expected, since ftview inserts this deliberately -- this demo program
often has to display zero-width, empty characters, and it is quite
useful to see a minimal movement of surrounding glyphs if you increase
or decrease the glyph index.
