Display ambiguous-width characters as wide instead of narrow.

# Characters look too narrow

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

Alboko barran, hautatu zure uneko profila Profilak atalean.
