[Biococoa-dev] strider and gck format

[Alexander Griekspoor]

Hi Koen,

The columnwidth parameter is exactly that, it's not the spacing, it  
determines the space for characters. The default of 90 matches  
exactly 10 courier 12 characters. Here's the awakefromnib stuff I use:

	[sequenceTextView setSelectedTextAttributes: [NSDictionary  
dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: [NSColor colorWithCalibratedRed:  
178.0 / 255.0 green: 198.0 / 255.0 blue: 223.0 / 255.0	alpha: 1.0],  
NSBackgroundColorAttributeName, nil]];
     [sequenceTextView setContinuousSpellCheckingEnabled: NO];
	[sequenceTextView setFont: [NSFont fontWithName: @"Courier" size:  
12.0]];
	[sequenceTextView setUnit: @"bp"];

Now it would indeed by logical (and a future plan), that the  
columnwidth is not a property but is calculated based on the current  
font. Then the number of characters per column would be a nice  
property to add. This was outside the current scope for me though.

One other thing, there seems to be a bug in the textview that if you  
have less than one row of text, you can't select any of the first 10  
characters, if you would find the fix for this bug I would be very  
greatful!
Cheers,
Alex
