Rather than centring each clue in an imaginary box, put equal amounts of space between them (using space characters) and then right-align the whole string. This makes for more efficient use of space, and I think it also looks better when there are two-digit clues. This does introduce a rather grotty (if large) fixed-size buffer for row clues. Probably the row clues should be pre-formatted into a string when the puzzle is set up.
This is the README accompanying the source code to Simon Tatham's puzzle collection. The collection's web site is at <https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/>. The puzzle collection is built using CMake <https://cmake.org/>. To compile in the simplest way (on any of Linux, Windows or Mac), run these commands in the source directory: cmake . cmake --build . The manual is provided in Windows Help format for the Windows build; in text format for anyone who needs it; and in HTML for the Mac OS X application and for the web site. It is generated from a Halibut source file (puzzles.but), which is the preferred form for modification. To generate the manual in other formats, rebuild it, or learn about Halibut, visit the Halibut website at <https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/halibut/>.
