Yes, Scidb is inserting newlines - in fact double newlines, because a single newline is less successful - but not calculating the line length; Scidb is calculating the ply count, and this is font independent. The performance problem with long lines is severe, hopefully the Tk team will work on this problem - see proposal <http://www.tcl.tk/cgi-bin/tct/tip/155.html>.
