Oh. OK, so now I feel stupid: I was convinced full-width chars were twice the width of half-width chars… and it turns out the names are treacherous, and they are actually not. I guess this is a font / display issue then, and not an org-mode issue. Sorry for having bothered you and thank you! Leo

The problem is that (string-width "何か") equals (string-width "") i.e, 4 characters, but both strings do not have the same length visually. As long as the two sexps above disagree, it seems difficult to support this.

Using it with regular English ｍａｋｅｓ ｉｔ ｌｏｏｋ ｌｉｋｅ ｔｈ ｉｓ, which I guess you'll grant me is not really usable :) I wonder if it'd be possible to support full-width chars for CJK script?

Hello, Leo Gaspard writes: > Small issue I've been having with org-mode: full-width characters > (eg. 何か) appear to be breaking column display. Org tables assume a fixed-width font. You need to use one, if such thing exists for these characters. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
[O] Full-width characters break column display
Hello, Small issue I've been having with org-mode: full-width characters (eg. 何か) appear to be breaking column display. Does anyone know of a workaround for this? Cheers, and thank you for making org-mode as great as I'm currently discovering it is! Leo
