The following 15 characters went from neutral to ambiguous,
probabaly someone discovered them in some CJK character set
that is displayed there double-width:
00AE;A # REGISTERED SIGN
014B;A # LATIN SMALL LETTER ENG
02C4;A # MODIFIER LETTER UP ARROWHEAD
02DF;A # MODIFIER LETTER CROSS ACCENT
2022;A # BULLET
2024;A # ONE DOT LEADER
203E;A # OVERLINE
2116;A # NUMERO SIGN
2153;A # VULGAR FRACTION ONE THIRD
215C;A # VULGAR FRACTION THREE EIGHTHS
215D;A # VULGAR FRACTION FIVE EIGHTHS
21B8;A # NORTH WEST ARROW TO LONG BAR
21B9;A # LEFTWARDS ARROW TO BAR OVER RIGHTWARDS ARROW TO BAR
21E7;A # UPWARDS WHITE ARROW
273D;A # HEAVY TEARDROP-SPOKED ASTERISK
> Markus, could you please update your wcwidth() implementation?
The normal wcwidth() did not change as a result of Unicode 3.1.1,
because both neutral and ambiguous characters result there in
the same width: 1
I just updated the still somewhat experimental wcwidth_cjk(),
in case people found that so far actually useful. It contains
a new table of EastAsianWidth Ambiguous characters.
