---In addition to info in my last post concerning a fixed pitch font, I do
sort of use the equivalent of a tab to reach the right border column.  The
rows with mixed text use a variable string of spaces preceding the text to
reach their proper starting points which are staggered in a stepped fashion,
but on the right hand end, I've defined a function to move the print head to
a specified right border column, by a parameter  set by the column position
of the top border right corner character after it is determined for any
particular run.
Chart width varys per run according to number of generations being printed.
I do much appreciate your comments.
