DESCRIPTION
       The  wcwidth  function  returns  the number of columns needed to represent the wide
       character c. If c is a printable wide character, the value is at least 0. If  c  is
       L’\0’, the value is 0. Otherwise -1 is returned.

RETURN VALUE
       The wcwidth function returns the number of column positions for c.

CONFORMING TO
       UNIX98, POSIX 1003.1-2001 Note that glibc before 2.2.5 used the prototype
       int wcwidth(wint_t c);

SEE ALSO

NOTES
       The behaviour of wcwidth depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
