# The devel/py-cwcwidth port

## py3-cwcwidth-0.1.9 – Oython bindings for C wc(s)width

## Description

    To compute the number of columns needed to print a string, POSIX.1-2001
    and POSIX.1-2008 define two functions: wcwidth and wcswidth. Given a
    character or string, they return the required number of columns or error
    out with -1 if they encounter a nonprintable character.

    This module presents a Python interface to these functions.

    It is similar to "wcwidth", but using the C functions directly instead
    of Python emulations.
