-Description: Determines the monospace display width of a string in Ruby.
- [Unicode 9.0.0] Determines the monospace display width of a string using EastAsianWidth.txt, Unicode general category, and other data.
+Description: Determines the monospace display width of a string in Ruby
+ When printed to the screen, the length of the string is usually equal to the
+ number of cells it occupies. However, there are categories of characters that
+ occupy 2 cells (full-wide), and others that occupy 0. This library provides
+ functions similar to wcwidth() and wcswidth() known from C, to determine the
+ monospace display width of a string.
