No, what GEMS does is split the race text at a word boundary into two lines if it is longer than 24 chars.
This one I understand and prefer.
This one I don't follow though. What the rules for initials and mid truncation? What gets printed for "For the office of the president and vice president" and "This-Is-A-Strange-Race-Label"? Anyway, if you can come up with some rules that generate something more legible than option 2, I am all for it.
I think blinking would be too ugly to consider. The other possibility would be to do a "tractor" display that scrolls the text back and forth (ever use WinAmp?). Ken
