Description

Special characters (such as chinese) have a bigger width in a terminal, so the alignment of columns breaks. We need to determine the display width of the characters to compute the proper padding needed for the next column.

That does not really solve the problem, we need to use the https://github.com/janlelis/unicode-display_width gem

Some Unicode characters, e.g. chinese, consume more space when displayed on a terminal
than a single roman character. To avoid alignment issues, try to determine the width
using the unicode-display_width gem.
