The ruler line falls behind the cursor #19

This has only started happening in the last couple of days, so perhaps it's an issue with the latest Atom update. I've noticed it on both OS X El Capitan and Ubuntu 16.04.

When I type the first character on a new line, the ruler moves with the cursor no problem. When I type the second character on a line, the ruler doesn't move, so that it is then one column to the left of the cursor. If I continue typing, the ruler remains one column to the left of the cursor. I get the same problem when I start typing on a line that already has some characters on it.

I don't know CoffeeScript, but it feels like a simple off-by-one error. Let me know if you need any more information, or if there's anything I can do to help.

I haven't noticed this on ArchLinux, then again I'm still back on 1.8.0 and I believe 1.9 just came out. I'll take a look.

Same issue, atom 1.10.2, OS X El Capitan

I'm now seeing this as well. Visually frustrating, for sure.

I don't know if it helps, but I've seen the same problem with the similar highlight-column package. I opened an issue in that repository as well.

The fact that it happens to both packages makes me think the problem is deeper, maybe in core.

Also, I noticed this same issue on Windows 7, just so you know.

Thanks for using rulerz, and caring enough to submit a bug report! We're no longer actively using Atom day-to-day, and so haven't devoted a great deal of time to the package. If you're interested in picking up maintainership, please let me know.

As it happens, I've also switched away from Atom. I'm using Vim now (as well as vim-crosshairs in case that helps anyone).

What tool have you switched to in place of Atom? I'm always interested to hear what people are using.

Funny, I've actually gone to Vim as well (hadn't discovered vim-crosshairs yet though - good recommendation).
