Ooooo-kay, now we can help you! See http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr11/
and its associated table, which says exactly which characters are wide,
which are narrow, and which are ambiguous (e.g., Cyrillic characters are
narrow in native context, wide in Asian context). The table
is at http://www.unicode.org/Public/3.2-Update/EastAsianWidth-3.2.0.txt
