Row of special characters spaced too closely

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use Hacker's keyboard on a Nook Color with CyanogenMod 7.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

In portrait mode, the Android keyboard displays a row of special characters in 
orange: ! ? , " ' : and so on. This row is spaced out to be as wide as portrait 
mode (or that's a coincidence, but it is useful).

Hacker's keyboard spaces these characters more closely together. This is 
probably related to issue 26, and the 169 DPI of this device.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Hacker's Keyboard v1.18 on CyanogenMod 7, on Nook Color.

Please provide any additional information below.

The new scaling option has no effect, but I don't think it should change the 
font size. See the attached, showing Android Keyboard and Hacker's Keyboard in 
two different scales.
