Just some more info on the BeOS Margin fix / bug:
The BeOS margin bug was caused by the previous code incorrectly
returning the calculation
of the character escapment. The code also used ceil on a calculation
that returned an integral result so it was unneccesary. (It was an
integral result since we use B_BITMAP_SPACING thus all characters use
integral spacing.)
Drawing still appears occasionaly in the margin, identically to the
other platforms, so it is probably an xp bug.
Hope this helps,
- Christopher
