Description : text-wrapping library with i18n support
This is a library for text-wrapping (or line-folding) of multilingual
text for tty output, which supports:
- automatic locale-encoding detection
- multibyte encodings (UTF-8, EUC-JP, etc)
- fullwidth characters (CJK Ideograph and so on)
- combining characters (accent marks, Thai, and so on)
- languages which don't use whitespaces between words (Chinese and Japanese)
This library was written to be used by curses-based small softwares
such as cdebconf and tasksel.
