24.0.50; Gomoku display bug |
Date: |
Fri, 19 Mar 2010 23:51:01 +0100 |
User-agent: |
Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/24.0.50 (gnu/linux) |
1. emacs -Q
2. M-x gomoku
3. Play until the game is won, then press RET, which clears the board.
=> The positions occupied at the end of the just cleared board display a
residue of the characters -- a thin red line from the right side of the
`O' and two green dots from the right side of the `X'. Typing C-l
eliminates the residue.
This is with the default font on my system:
xft:-monotype-Andale Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
Normally I use this font:
xft:-unknown-DejaVu Sans Mono-bold-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
and with this the above bleeding does not occur (with the Andale Mono
font I can see that the Gomoku `O' and `X' characters are slightly wider
than the block cursor, while with DejaVu Sans Mono they are just as wide
as the cursor).
In GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.6)
of 2010-03-19 on escher

(Sorry for the late reply, I was travelling when you posted and
overlooked it when I got back.) Thanks for the reminder. I don't
currently have access to a system with this font installed and haven't
made the effort to install it, but I have tried several other monospace
fonts and cannot reproduce the issue either, so I suppose it's no longer
a problem and am therefore closing this bug.
