When working in JQT with some of the non-standard-width characters in a., the boxing formatting is incorrect. Here's a link to a screenshot (.png) of my code in JQT attempting to create all the 13 playing cards in 4 suits. https://bit.ly/2BD6LEQ
As you can see, the horizontal boxing characters are incorrect, and don't adjust for the wider characters, even though I'm using a fixed-width font. In the second part of the example, I randomly deal 4 hands from the deck labeled 'all'. At this point, we have 4 hands of 13 cards, but there are random spaces scattered in the boxed cards. Something went wrong, adding spaces after the random deal. In the third part, I remove all the horizontal boxing, making the display look much neater, but the extra spaces are even more visible. Two issues: 1. Something is inserting random spaces when randomly selecting boxed items. 2. It would be nice to have the boxing auto-adjust for variable width characters. If that isn't possible, it would be useful to have a boxing format option to remove horizontal boxing & corner characters for environments that don't have fixed-with fonts, that use non-standard-width characters, or that force double-spaced lines (Quora). After posting J problems and solutions in various venues, it turns out that the vertical bar (│) without horizontal bars or corners, is quite enough to clearly delineate separate items in most cases.
