claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix U+23F5 (⏵) renders as tofu in TUI on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS [3 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The issue is likely due to Claude Code's TUI rendering not handling the U+23F5 character correctly, and a workaround may involve updating the character rendering logic in Claude Code.

Guidance

• Investigate Claude Code's TUI rendering logic to see if it correctly handles Unicode characters, specifically U+23F5.
• Verify that the wcwidth() function is being used correctly in Claude Code's TUI rendering, as it returns 1 for the character, indicating it should be rendered as a single width character.
• Check if there are any existing issues or pull requests in Claude Code's repository related to Unicode character rendering.
• Consider testing Claude Code on a different Linux distribution or version to see if the issue is specific to Ubuntu 26.04.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue is related to a specific character rendering in Claude Code's TUI, and without access to the codebase, it's difficult to provide a concrete example.

Notes

The issue appears to be specific to Claude Code's TUI rendering on Ubuntu 26.04, and not a general Unicode rendering issue in the terminal or shell.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Update Claude Code's TUI rendering logic to correctly handle Unicode characters, specifically U+23F5, as the issue is likely specific to Claude Code's implementation.
