Are you sure that you don't use a proportional font
in the ScrolledList?

Will iiiii take as much place as WWWWW? If you use
a proportional font it won't and using spaces for
column formatting will NEVER work right, regardless
of your coding.

If you display multiple columns, I suggest you use a
widget suited for that purpose. Maybe Tix.TList is
what you need?
