> The GLYPH_SET flag can be used to compute the end of the line or we
This patch uses this approach for locating the end of line and works fine for
me.

Subject: Avoid copying characters beyond last
Positions without GLYPH_SET are copied as spaces. This is correct for tabs
and others locate sequences, but is wrong in the end of lines, where you get
a lot of spaces where there isn't any text. This patch avoid these ghost
trailing whitespaces, but still transform tabs into spaces.
