Then do: M-: (put-text-property 4 5 'display '(space :align-to 30)) In the regular Emacs, the "T" gets replaced by a bunch whitespace, as expected, but for emacs -nw, nothing happens, although C-u C-x = on "T" shows that it really has the correct display property, it just has no effect. Does anybody know whether this is actually _supposed_ to work? This makes sense on text terminals, so it should work on text terminals. Therefore, I think this is a bug.
