[PATCH 04/16] display_columns: add COL_DENSE to do unequal column layout

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



shrink_columns() calculate column width just enough to contain
text and padding.

relayout() uses shrink_columns() to try adding more columns after
columns are shrunk. However it only try that once.
