Re: [cc65] tgi_outtext bug

I tried to look through the sources and understand what is going on.

The driver declares something called _tgi_fontwidth which i 8 in my 
case. It is found in the header.

The textwidth code uses something called _tgi_charwidth which is zeroed 
at the time when the driver loads. I can not find any place in the code 
that would copy _tgi_fontwidth to _tgi_charwidth.

The old code has something like this in tgi_textstyle.s:
-.proc   charsize_helper
-
-        lda     _tgi_fontwidth,y
-        jmp     @L2
-@L1:    clc
-        adc     _tgi_fontwidth,y
-@L2:    dex
-        bne     @L1
-        sta     _tgi_charwidth,y
-        rts

But that was removed after revision 5021 in July 2011.
