I should have mentioned that if I turn soft-wrap on, then the right margin indicator becomes visible; it's only when soft-wrap is off that it's invisible.  Unfortunately, that's exactly when you need it.


> 3) The font rendering seems a bit odd, or at least not like it is in TM 1.5, Terminal, etc.  In particular, I typically use Monaco 9 pt. with antialiasing turned off.  However, when I set TM2 this way, the letters are smaller than they are in an equivalent TM 1.5 or Terminal window and the interline spacing is much larger; in addition, the letters do not appear to be uniformly spaced.  Can anyone comment on the possible reason(s) for these visual differences given the same font specification?


FWIW, I am also seeing a lot of ghosting -- i.e., I use a light-on-dark theme, and when I delete (white) text a faint image of it is left behind.  I don't know whether that's related to the way in which the window is being constructed, and to the font issue.
