Hey Folks,

in my understanding TextRulers have Tabs at a "fixed"
spacing in terms of "universal units".

>From time to time I would like to have the spacing fixed
in terms of something like "character counts".

This would imply that TextRulers auto-rescale themselves
when I (or anyone else) changes the font size.

Does somebody know a ready made solution, or have some
hints how to manage that.

I know already that I can set tab stops according to the
length of a string, i.e., by using:

TextRulers.AddTab(ru, f.attr.font.StringWidth("Testit"));

where ru is the current ruler and f is TextModels.Writer
(i.e. the rider of the current TextMappers.Formatter)

Maybe I need an extension of ruler, which has a new
property for being bound to the current font ...
