<title>Characters look too narrow</title>

Some characters, such as some Greek letters and Asian logograms, can take
|
|
Packit Service |
3bdf47 |
up either one or two cells in a terminal window. These characters are often
|
|
Packit Service |
3bdf47 |
referred to as ambiguous characters. By default, these characters
|
|
Packit Service |
3bdf47 |
are displayed with a narrow width in <app>Terminal</app>, which looks better
|
|
Packit Service |
3bdf47 |
in situations where perfect layout is important, such as in ASCII art. You
|
|
Packit Service |
3bdf47 |
can change your profile preferences to display ambiguous characters as wide,
|
|
Packit Service |
3bdf47 |
which can be better if you are reading running prose.
