Did this not happen before st-0.7? I implemented the ch* factors in a simple way just to control the invisible bounding boxes for each character, and they don't scale the font itself; the behavior you're seeing is working as intended, and it's also what I observed when I was testing the feature and experimented with different scaling factors. I have noticed that on some operating systems, even using the exact same st compile options and fonts, I get slightly different results -- on my work computer, there are 1-pixel gaps between vertical lines (not pipe but "│"), but at home, the gaps aren't there. I don't find this annoying enough to invest any effort into figuring out why that happens despite both computers being Debian-based. Eric
