Common Mistakes to Avoid

⚠️

Not accounting for tab display width

Solution: Tabs don't have fixed width. "Name\t" + padded text won't align if tab width varies. Use spaces for precise alignment.

⚠️

Padding already-long lines

Solution: If target width is 10 but text is 15 chars, most tools don't truncate. Result is 15, not 10. Handle long lines separately.

⚠️

Forgetting about Unicode width

Solution: Emoji and some Unicode chars are "wide". "😀" may count as 1 char but display as 2 spaces wide. Use monospace fonts.
