Description Ross Burton 2002-07-25 14:12:16 UTC 
It appears that vte does not insert any padding whatsoever when drawing
text, when I do a cvs update and have 'M's on the left column the left side
of the M is flush with the window edge, which looks a bit ugly.  libzvt
looked like it inserted a few pixels of padding which makes it easier to read.

I'm pretty sure this is a font issue.  I'm using "fixed 16" here and
there's a pixel between the 'M' and the left border.  Which font are
you using?
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2002-07-25 21:30:54 UTC 
I'm using Lucida Console.
Comment 3 Nalin Dahyabhai 2002-08-08 04:27:45 UTC 
Fixed in CVS profterm and vte (one-pixel padding added).
