1208=head3 Character widths are not correct.
1209
1210urxvt uses the system wcwidth function to know the information about
1211the width of characters, so on systems with incorrect locale data you
1212will likely get bad results. Two notorious examples are Solaris 9,
1213where single-width characters like U+2514 are reported as double-width,
1214and Darwin 8, where combining chars are reported having width 1.
1215
1216The solution is to upgrade your system or switch to a better one. A
1217possibly working workaround is to use a wcwidth implementation like
