@subsection Wide Characters
Fixed width fonts in most countries have characters of the same width.
Some countries, however, use Latin characters mixed with wider
characters---most notable East Asian countries.
The problem is that when formatting, Gnus assumes that if a string is 10
characters wide, it'll be 10 Latin characters wide on the screen. In
these countries, that's not true.

@code{t}. This makes buffer generation slower, but the results will be
prettier. The default value is @code{nil}.
