Oh and the monospace business.
Wu:
中文字体大部分都是 dual width 或 proportional,很少是 monospace 的。
"Most Chinese fonts are either dual width or proportional; few are monospaced."
It's time to introduce this "wcwidth" magic, a function that tells you how
many
columns a character takes up. Being monospaced doesn't mean everything is the
same width in this big new world with emojis and ideographs; you just have to
keep everything's width a simple multiple of the base latin width. (wcwidth and
Chinese convention uses 2 cols for CJK text; Japanese convention uses 1.5.) All
so-called "dual-width" stuff, like Source Han Sans HW, is therefore monospaced.
(I'm not saying you should use Source Han Sans HW for monospace, since it's
terrible for coding with its hard-to-tell 0/O group. But it is monospaced.)
