+perl-Text-CharWidth (perl module)
+
+This perl module, Text::CharWidth, gets number of occupied columns of
+a string on a terminal.
+This module supplies features similar as wcwidth(3) and wcswidth(3)
+in C language.
+It computes numbuer of columns occupied on the terminal by a text
+string, which is not always equal to its number of characters and
+depends on the encoding used.
+
+Parameters are to be given in locale encoding, not always in UTF-8.
+
+This perl module is needed by Text::WrapI18N. \ No newline at end of file
