Hello!
I've received a couple of requests about getting Align.vim to work with
utf-8 characters. As an example, consider:
let x='grün'
echo "strlen(x)=".strlen(x)
Thus, strlen() returns 5, not 4 as one might (sometimes) expect. So, I
tried a workaround:
fun! Strlen(x)
1split
enew
call setline(1,a:x)
let ret= virtcol("$") - 1
bwipe!
return ret
endfun
echo Strlen(x)
now returns 4 (at the price of using interpreted code over built-in
strlen()). So, is this the best that can be done?
I'd prefer to have a built-in compiled function for this.
Regards,
Chip Campbell
