In an empty buffer, m-: of

(let ((p (point))) (insert " ") (add-text-properties p (point) `(display (space :width 7))) (insert ".") (current-column))

returns 2 in gui mode but 8 in character mode of emacsen more recent than emacs 22.  (I tried it in several emacs versions including the most recent 27.0.50 snapshot.)

I discovered this by figuring out why the m-x bubbles game hasn't worked in character mode since emacs 22.

It's a bug in bubbles.el, now fixed on the emacs-26 branch.  The patch
is below, so you can apply it locally if you want.

The patch does some cleanup, so it might not be easy to spot the
crucial problem it fixes.  The root cause of the bug was that
bubbles--initialize had 2 code paths in it: one for GUI frames (which
worked), and another for TTY frames (which didn't, and it seems to me
that no one has ever tried it).  The GUI part computed the offsets as
lists, i.e. '(N), whereas the TTY part produced just N, a simple
number.  And the display property 'space' treats each of these
differently: '(N) is treated as pixel width, while N is treated as a
multiple of the default character width (your example only used the N
form, so it produced 8 instead of 1 from current-column).  Once we
produce '(N) both in GUI and in TTY frames, the game works in both.

Here's the patch I promised; I'm closing the bug report.
