Emoji prefix inconsistent whitespace

[Mathemmagician]

Fun issue I'm 👁bserving. Trying to use emojis as prefix makes lines 2+ a bit inconsistent (shifted back by 1 space).

Setup: Jupyter Lab, macOS Catalina

from icecream import ic
ic.configureOutput(outputFunction=print,  prefix='👁 👁 ')

random_text = 'First very long text'
random_text2 = 'Second very long text'
random_text3 = 'Third very long text'

ic(random_text, random_text2, random_text3)

Using a prefix without emojis:

👁️abc
Xabc

I think it's just that the fixed width font doesn't render emojis in the fixed width

[Mathemmagician]

Interesting. I guess I need fixed width emojis?

[alexmojaki]

i think you need to not use emojis lol

[Mathemmagician]

Not using emojis in 2021? Not gonna happen lol. I think I'll just live with this inconsistency.

For the reference, I'm using "👁 👁 " to indicate information that needs to be double checked in the notebook, which makes the output really standout. So the use case is pretty legit

from icecream import ic
ic.configureOutput(outputFunction=print)

random_text = 'First very long text'
random_text2 = 'Second very long text'
random_text3 = 'Third very long text'

ic('👁', random_text, random_text2, random_text3)

ic| '👁': '👁'
    random_text: 'First very long text'
    random_text2: 'Second very long text'
    random_text3: 'Third very long text'

Literals are actually only supposed to be shown once but that doesn't work with multiline output (https://github.com/gruns/icecream/issues/84). In this case it works out OK though lol

[Mathemmagician]

ic| '👁': '👁'

That's funny!

For the reference, I'm using "eye eye " to indicate information that needs to be double checked in the notebook, which makes the output really standout.

that's cute 😊. i like it
