Wcwidth

This is a port of the Python port written by Jeff Quast, which originally was written by Markus Kuhn.

• Python port: https://github.com/jquast/wcwidth (MIT)
• Original: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/wcwidth.c

Usage

using Wcwidth;

// Get the width
var width = UnicodeCalculator.GetWidth('コ');

// It should be 2 cells wide
Debug.Assert(width == 2);

Building

We're using Cake as a dotnet tool for building. So make sure that you've restored Cake by running the following in the repository root:

> dotnet tool restore

After that, running the build is as easy as writing:

> dotnet cake
