I loaded multiplt.dem on both wxt and x11 with their default sizes which are in the order of 600x400, and then resized both windows to make them smaller. Here is the final screenshot : http://tipote.free.fr/resize.png I honestly prefer the wxt output, even if none of them are really readabl= e. Timoth=E9e |
