For the moment, I'd suggest that one unicode character has a the same
with as the space character, assuming that stdout.encoding correctly
matches the terminal.

Then the C implementation could do something similar to the statements I
added in traceback.py:
    offset = len(line.encode('utf-8')[:offset].decode('utf-8'))
