--- Comment #4 from hst...@quickfur.ath.cx --- We don't need to rely on the local OS implementation of this function; std.uni has enough tools to provide a native implementation. Also, this is independent of Posix, even though wcwidth/wcswidth are the names under which the Posix standard provides this functionality; Unicode TR11 specifies an East Asian Width property for characters. The data file can be obtained here: ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/EastAsianWidth.txt Here's a tentative implementation that I made using std.uni's Trie facilities: https://github.com/quickfur/strwidth I hope to get this into shape to add to std.uni at some point. --
