Em-dash is a valid example, but 'fi/ffl' are NOT. Ligatures should not be 'hardcoded' byPerhaps not double-width, but there are plenty of non-ASCII,
non-ISO-8859-1 characters in the Unicode set that should be
interesting to U.S. programmers.
This is a good information. I hope such people will hard-code UTF-8 support up to two bytes. Though I didn't find such softwares, I heard there are such softwares. We have to continue keeping watch on i18n implement of softwares....
How about "em-dash" or ligatures such as "fi" or "ffl"? Are they
doublewidth?
those who edit documents, but have to be automatically 'summonned' at the rendering
layer. Anyway, other examples include Euro sign, genuine opening quoation marks
and many more that have been mentioned several times by Markus Kuhn on this list
before.
