Re: [tf-dis] Timestamp 'window' in TF

[Colin M. <zix...@gm...>]

That does work to some degree, but with paragraphs, you get line-wrapped
and it doesn't look all that clear...  I'm using a fixed width font below,
for those of you who are translating it into some kind of variable width...

09:21 | Room name
09:21 | Description that's very long and
just keeps going on the next line
which kinda breaks the 'look'...
09:21 | Some Text
09:22 | Some Text
09:22 | Some Text

What'd I'm looking for:

09:21 | Room name
09:21 | Description that's very long and
      |  just keeps going on the next line
      |  which doesn't break the 'look'...
09:21 | Some Text
09:22 | Some Text
09:22 | Some Text
