It works as in "the output looks as the one expected". Long lines with utf8
characters will make it break again though.
screen.addstr(0, 0, "äöü" * 20) # assuming COLUMNS=80
Will give two rows of characters of which the first row is 40 characters long.

Sounds sensible. Are you aware of a workaround for this issue? I.e. is there
any way to force Python2.7 to use the wide mode for outputting characters?
