Hehe ;) But that's still not what we were talking about... Maybe you
could get your honour back by adding a space inside the actual zvt
widget so that the characters are separated from the edge. Try to type
"echo H" in the gnome-terminal and you'll see what I mean. It is too
close to the edge...

I tried to fix this but I had to give up...
