widecharwidth is a Python script that outputs a C++11 header-only implementation of wcwidth(), by downloading and parsing the latest UnicodeData.txt, EastAsianWidth.txt, and emoji-data.txt.

Usage

You may directly copy and use the included widechar_width.h.

This header contains a single public function widechar_wcwidth(). This returns either a positive width value (1 or 2), or a negative value such as widechar_private_use. Note that there are several possible negative return values, to distinguish among different scenarios.

If you aren't sure how to handle negative return values, try this table:

| return value | width | |-------------------------|---| | widechar_nonprint | 0 | | widechar_combining | 0 | | widechar_ambiguous | 1 | | widechar_private_use | 1 | | widechar_unassigned | 0 | | widechar_widened_in_9 | 2 (or maybe 1, renderer dependent) |

Regenerating the header

To regenerate the header, run make. This will download and parse the relevant files, and run tests.
