Hi. Thank you for your reply.


What terminal emulator are you using ? I have tried tamil characters on
both xterm (248) and gnome-terminal (2.28.1).


gnome-terminal


echo -e "#\0340\0256\0205#"

If you notice that the tamil character is not between the '#' characters
but instead overlaps with one, thats the problem ur facing then.


#?#. Yes character was get overlapping as you said.


I don't
know of a solution to this, other than considering tamil characters to
take twice the width and leave a space between some tamil characters you
print.


Ok i will do that

Thank you
