4)  Putting the cursor at Column 1, keep in the Shift key and press
the Right Arrow key - so you highlight the line.  You get a really
cool wave effect in the editor. :-)  The text expands and contracts in
width while highlighting.

Hi,

I haven't followed the GTK2 discussions, so this might have been
covered before.  Sorry in advance if this has been covered.  I thought
I would try running Lazarus compiled with GTK2, even though my apps I
create will be compiled with GTK1.

I'm very impressed with how much the GTK2 support has improved since I
last tried it (a couple months back).

A few editor problems:

1) The cursor isn't drawn on the correct place, compared the the text.
 It seems the text/character width isn't calculated correctly, to know
where to draw the I beam cursor.

2) Line spacing seems a bit too much.  There is quite some wasted
space between lines and could be placed closer together.   [Ah,
setting the editor line spacing to 0 seems to fix this.]

3) What font currently works well with Lazarus and GTK2, to minimize
the problem in (1).  I currently have it set to 'Monospace 11'.
