Subject: display question: should ^N and \NNN widths be fixed?
Date: Thu, 23 May 2002 14:16:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E17Azx8-0005vE-00@giblet> (raw)
in src/indent.c `current_column', ^N and \NNN are presently hard coded
as taking 2 and 4 columns, respectively. i'd like to propose that these
always be displayed in a fixed-width font, to avoid having to compute
their display widths. this is not a big deal for ^N, but to compute
width of \NNN efficiently could mean another cache.
from user perspective, it seems to me ^N or \NNN as fixed width makes
reading them easier.
