Subject: suggestion for dvi2tty

Would it be difficult to have an option where enough blanks would be
inserted between words to make the right edge of a line of text appear
where it should?  This would be wonderful for justified text.  In
other words, wherever there is a line or string of text, would it be
possible to calculate the correct position of the rightmost character,
and justify the line so that both the leftmost and rightmost
characters are correctly positioned, even if some intermediate
characters are not?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Redo font handling.
    Bit of spagetti now. Japanes, scandinavian, finxed fonts, symbols, math
    etc. Is a commandline option necessary for selecting japan? Selecting based
    font jfontnum should do it, doesn't it?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

For character handling 'char' might not be a good type. May need to 
change it to 'unsigned char' or 'int'.

% Mocht je nog eens naar dvi2tty kijken zou je dan wellicht iets aan dit
% soort tabular rariteiten kunnen doen? Een optie misschien waarmee alle
% tabular info wordt weggevaagd? Of bestaat zoiets reeds.

\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}
\begin{tabular}[h]{|c||c||c|c||}
\hline
-11.1 & -22.2 & -33.3 & -44.4 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{document}

% Output via dvi2tty versie 5.1
