Well, konsole can do that, too, but all of them (AFAIK) put each nice and variable-width glyph at their assumed monospace location, which is the worst possible solution to my mind (and eyes). If I want tabular behavior, I use a monospace font. Maybe, at some point I may switch to some graphical text editor.
