Comment 6 for bug 1069919

qHi Denoyse, you're making a good point there.

At the moment, the margins are not calculated based on a font, but hard coded into the program ... so yes, It won't work with another font. What would be possible is to look into the gEdit code and figure out if they have a method to find out the width of a monospace font.

I actually ported uberwriter to python 3 yesterday, and it's running good on python 3.2 .

You can check out the code if you like, the python 3 port is in the inline preview branch of me. (I know, branching is a little messy ... )

If you need more tips on the workflow / or how I run the program, feel free to ask (because it was made using quickly, and I am not sure whether that's available for arch ... Anyhow, it should be easy to write a shell script that does just the same as 'quickly run', compiling the glib schema and running bin/uberwriter.

If you need help, just let me know.
