 {{{
 Hello.

 I use Sagemath to show the Linear Algebra problems solution.

 And I am Korean.

 Therefore I write the title in Korean.

 {{{
 But in worksheet,  the title is broken because of truncated_name
 function in worksheet.py.


 def truncated_name(self, max=30):
        name = self.name()
        if len(name) > max:
            name = name[:max] + ' ...'
        return name


 But Unicode is not 1 byte by character.

 So Korean is broken if max is midpoint of Korean one character.

 Therefore I modify the function code like this.


 def truncated_name(self, max=30):
        name = unicode(self.name(), "utf-8") # name = self.name()
        if len(name) > max:
            name = name[:max] + ' ...'
        return name.encode('utf-8') # return name


 Now name is encoded by unicode, then Korean one character's length is
 1, not 2 or 3.

 So I can see the right title.


 I think there are more good choice to solve the problem.
 Because I don't know about Python well and unicode also.
 So I suggest this.
