Fix work package list alignment with accented characters#10
Merged
Conversation
Use utf8.RuneCountInString instead of len() to compute column widths, so that accented characters (é, â, à...) are counted as 1 display character instead of 2 bytes. Add a regression test that catches the misalignment.

Impressive find. I wasn't at all aware of that behaviour of len. Thanks for adding a test case, too.

Well, I was lucky I had some accented letters in the wp I listed, and then the rest is obvious. |
