Revision: [e-mail]/emacs--devo--0--patch-30 Creator: Michael Olson <[e-mail]> Merge from erc--main--0 2006-01-30 Michael Olson <[e-mail]> * erc-stamp.el (erc-timestamp-right-align-by-pixel): New option that determines whether to use pixel values to align right timestamps. The default is not to do so, since it only works with Emacs22 on X, and even then some people have trouble. (erc-insert-aligned): Use `erc-timestamp-right-align-by-pixel'.
