# The devel/py-wcwidth,python3 port

## py3-wcwidth-0.1.6 – measures number of terminal column cells of wide-char code

## Description

    This API is mainly for Terminal Emulator implementors, or those writing programs
    that expect to interpreted by a terminal emulator and wish to determine the
    printable width of a string on a Terminal.

    Usually, the length of the string is equivalent to the number of cells it
    occupies except that there are are also some categories of characters which
    occupy 2 or even 0 cells. POSIX-conforming systems provide wcwidth(3) and
    wcswidth(3) of which this module's interface mirrors precisely.
