wcwidth(L"😍") gives me 2 if you meant this. I tried on another laptop (but it has debian installed too) and problem was the same. If I print any character that has wcwidth() = 2 to the third last place of terminal, only half of the character is rendered. This only happens if using curses. I'v tried it on debian and on another fedora laptop. ``` #include <curses.h> #include <locale.h>
int main() { int last_row = 5, last_column = 25; setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); initscr(); mvaddstr(last_row, last_column-2, "字"); getch(); endwin(); return 0; } ``` Thank you for trying to reproduce it.
