wide-align ---------- A wide-character aware text alignment function for use in terminals / on the console. ### Usage ``` var align = require('wide-align') // Note that if you view this on a unicode console, all of the slashes are // aligned. This is because on a console, all narrow characters are // an en wide and all wide characters are an em. In browsers, this isn't // held to and wide characters like "古" can be less than two narrow // characters even with a fixed width font. console.log(align.center('abc', 10)) // ' abc ' console.log(align.center('古古古', 10)) // ' 古古古 ' console.log(align.left('abc', 10)) // 'abc ' console.log(align.left('古古古', 10)) // '古古古 ' console.log(align.right('abc', 10)) // ' abc' console.log(align.right('古古古', 10)) // ' 古古古' ``` ### Functions #### `align.center(str, length)` → `str` Returns *str* with spaces added to both sides such that that it is *length* chars long and centered in the spaces. #### `align.left(str, length)` → `str` Returns *str* with spaces to the right such that it is *length* chars long. ### `align.right(str, length)` → `str` Returns *str* with spaces to the left such that it is *length* chars long. ### Origins These functions were originally taken from [cliui](https://npmjs.com/package/cliui). Changes include switching to the MUCH faster pad generation function from [lodash](https://npmjs.com/package/lodash), making center alignment pad both sides and adding left alignment.
