Using Wide Character compatibility renders double table columns in gnome-terminal
See original GitHub issueWhen using gnome-terminal, and have the option Ambiguous-width character set to Wide causes spectre.console to render all tables with the double amount of table columns (Setting the option to narrow fixes this issue though).
Reproducible in gnome-terminal by setting the following option:
Edit --> Preferences --> Compatibility --> Ambiguous-width character = Wide.

@AdmiringWorm I see. Sadly this has nothing really to do with Spectre.Console, it’s the Gnome terminal which behaves in a way that’s kind of unorthodox, so the best we can do is document the behavior if we can’t detect it.
This might come up again for windows terminal, if https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/153 is being implemented.
