I don't think move_it_in_display_line_to is relevant at this early stage of
your work.

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you saying that if you ignore
the line overflow, termination of a line, etc., you can write code that does
display characters column-wise?
In any case, it is hard to discuss this without seeing the code which
doesn't work. Is the code you wrote available anywhere for review?
