Yes, but if you take the left boarder of the window, as your initial point,
and then move it ten over, then though it may not be the same, it will be
evenly spaced, where GUIcoordmode will be a bit different, from my
understanding, but who knows. I will have my sighted friend play with it
when he gets home from school, and see what he says about my sample, if you
would like to test one with GUICoordMode, I will have him compair the two.
