Fixed Width Numeric Fonts
Did you know that all of the numbers in the standard Palm OS fonts have the same width? This is intentional, as it makes it easier to line up a column of numbers. If you need to fill spaces in front of your numbers, use the TxtGlueGetNumericSpaceChar call prototyped in <TxtGlue.h> and defined in the Palm OS glue library. This will return the proper character, as the location of this character changed between Palm OS 3.0 and 3.1.
