Subject: dowhatis formatting for Qt
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0d0900b3a41180fa45ae8eb2739e0d4d5ae82919;p=nethack

dowhatis formatting for Qt

The '/' command's variants /o, /O, /m, and /M use spaces to
align output in columns and that looks quite bad if rendered in
a proportional font.  Qt normally uses proportional font for
text windows but it watches the supplied lines for any with four
consecutive spaces and forces fixed-width font if it sees any.
So changing the existing separator line from "" to "    " makes
Qt format the dowhatis data as intended.
