Now that I've started playing with my owlconf...
- From zwgc.desc land, the protect and verbatim functions (really, I don't
want @i evaluated in instance names).
- A function that returns the on-screen length of a string (i.e.,
owl::printedlength("@i(foo)") returns 3). This would make it much easier
to right-justify things.
- An option to get zwgc's handling of unknown @ codes (eliding them rather
than printing them).
