Thad -
        The one who pointed out the one-pixel glitches to me originally
(over a year ago) was Andy Finkel. He also told me that it was an OS
bug. You are correct about the cause. SetSofStyle makes bold characters
on occasion (maybe it was only the space) one pixel wider than the font's
specified width. This, my dear, is a bug. Short of remembering exactly
what is on the screen (including attributes) there is no way to fix it,
although maybe Meshugena is meshugena enough (8) to do exactly that.
