[closed] Problem again with line lengths...

Post by Ro Ablate »

I am comparing files with short fields (4 to 6 chars) separated by tabs, and some lines are quite long (approaching 800 characters with tabs set to 1).

First off: Everything is displayed well if tabs are set to 8.

However, it is harder to read with tabs at 8 since the first field on a line can be larger (3 to 15 chars).

However, when I increase the tab size, the program starts to overlay characters (line wrap without line feeds).

Hopefully this is enough of a description for you to squash this bug once and for all.

Best Regards.

Files were sent to you awhile ago, in two batches.
Did you receive them?
Is there a problem recreating the bug?
Anything I can do to help?

Regards,

Sorry, Ro, I haven't figured it out yet. I will let you know if you would need something from you. Maybe I will prepare special version with some logging added, since I could not reproduce it.

v3.8

FYI - new version 3.8 seems to improve or hopefully solve this problem.
