Is there any reason why this particular use of the display property
could not work on text-mode terminals?
My temporary belief that it did work was apparently due to an optical
illusion.
Perform the following exercise with an emacs under X (or probably some
other window system) and with emacs -q -nw:
Go to the scratch buffer:
;; This buffer is for notes you don't want to save, and for Lisp evaluation.
Then do:
M-: (put-text-property 4 5 'display '(space :align-to 30))
In the regular Emacs, the "T" gets replaced by a bunch whitespace, as
expected, but for emacs -nw, nothing happens, although C-u C-x = on
"T" shows that it really has the correct display property, it just has
no effect.
Does anybody know whether this is actually _supposed_ to work?
Sincerely,
Luc.
