sl0ppty: pick a minimise mark that fills its cell
The buttons looked unevenly spaced. They are not: the cells are mark, space, space, mark, space, space, mark, exactly even, which is worth checking before touching any arithmetic. The gap was in the glyph. An en dash is a short stroke floating in a mostly empty cell, so it donated its own whitespace to the space beside it and sat further from the zoom button than the zoom button sat from close, which fill theirs. A lower one-eighth block has weight comparable to the square and the cross, and is also the conventional minimise icon and a fair description of where the pane actually goes. Noted in the config beside the width warning, since it is the same class of problem: the mark is yours to choose and the two things to know about the choice are that emoji are drawn double-width and that a light glyph will look badly spaced next to heavy ones.
