Twinkle Card List view column width issues
Brought to you by:

The card list view seems make pretty bad use of space, by cutting off characters when there would be room to show entire words..
eg. if the text in column 1 is "oli aivan poissa" and for example, the same text is column 2, twinkle displays only "oli aivan po" in the list few, when there must be room for 8 or more characters.
In summary it counts characters and doesn't account for the character width. Or try making a card with "wwwwwwwwwwwwwww" on one side and "iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii" on the other. Only the first 12 characters are shown
Perhaps the os has a built-in function to determine string width.

For ease in allocating memory space, I pick a fixed width for the characters when pulling for the summary. Changing to a dynamic allocation would dramatically slow the program down, and increasing the fixed width size could cause problems on older Palms with less RAM.
I'll look into this and see if something can be changed.
