I guess, though his gedit plugin doesn't work with the latest gedit anymore. It seems gedit changed some or other API call (what I can gather from the console output error message). > Yes, that's what I figured.

I don't know! It just does! :-) Actually on a serious note, it uses pixel calculations based on the ET parameters you can specify: MinimumWidth, PaddingWidth etc... When viewed with a ET enabled editor, the text might shift by a few pixels (not spaces) but all alignment will still be intact. It's just that clever! :) Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
