Not in the trivial sense but somehow ...
I wasn't really happy with a fix like
if Average_Width==0
AverageWidt=MaxWidth=MaxWidth/2 /* or Width('x') */
being added to about 3-4 locations:
1-2x in TextOut.c
1x in TextF.c
1x in Screen.c
The only reaons doing so might be that for the upcoming release
it might be only possible action to avoid the crash which
rarely happens(?).
