chsize = chinese character size in shell
get the real size of a character use in shell(with monospace font)
for example
'a' use 1
'啊' use 2
In [1]: from chsize import chlen, echlen
In [2]: chlen('hello world!')
Out[2]: 12
In [3]: chlen('你好世界！')
Out[3]: 10
In [4]: echlen('我你2我')
Out[4]: [('我', 2), ('你', 2), ('2', 1), ('我', 2)]
recently I need to auto generate rst layout doc for Sphinx, but when generate table
# Ipython Python 3.4.3
In [1]: u' {:{}} |'.format( a', 2)
Out[1]: ' a |'
In [2]: u' {:{}} |'.format('我', 2)
Out[2]: ' 我 |'
because python only take care of count of word, do not care if it is half width or full width.
