Hi Nils, truncation could be prevented by typing noabbrev
but this would not solve the misalignment issue. I'll try to think about this but cannot make any promises. I believe quite radical changes in how the SMCL code is written would be necessary. ben

True, but it's also possible to want truncation (it is the default, after all) without wanting it to occur in the middle of a char directive.

Understood, and this issue is not a priority for me personally. It would be more important if it affected an output format that was often used as a publishable product.
Two related issues with
{char}
directives in SMCL output:{char}
directives can be truncated, illustrated by the first and third tables below{char}
directives are treated as a multiple characters for the purpose of column alignment, illustrated by the second and fourth tables belowExample:
Example result:
As an aside, you might consider making
{char 215}
the default interaction for SMCL output, but I wouldn't do that unless these issues were fixed.
