Re: shr.el: folding Japanese text

[Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen <larsi@gnus.org>]

I tried yanking some text from an article in
gwene.cn.com.sina.blog.hanhan (Chinese text, I guess) into a .txt
buffer, and then just `M-q'-ing it.  It didn't look very nice.  It
looked as if thought the characters were much narrower than they really
were, because it filled the lines way too late.  Like this:

最近一个月没有更新，是因为不知道说什么好，我本人也正在赶新的小说，会在9月
出版，前几天去香港书展，长望着维港，更觉得应该有好的作品奉献给大家，虽然
他人无德无能，但我又何德何能，我深感忧虑，何以解愁，唯有作品。

(I hope that's not a naughty text and I'll end up in jail now for
threatening terroristey behaviour...)

In my Emacs, that text is displayed at least five characters too wide
before the lines were folded.  But that probably depends on what font
you use.

Doesn't Emacs have any way to say "how many pixels have I left now"?
