Which programming language is this? PL/pgSQL?

Hmm. Zsh gets it right:
trintignant:~ 0:31 :-) 1032% printf "\n%-10s Fim\n%-10s Fim\n" "Variável"
"Variavel"
Variável Fim
Variavel Fim
As do Perl and Python.

Yes, determining how much space a UTF-8 sequence occupies on screen is
surprisingly hard. I'm not sure what the C standard says about that. But
these days I would expect any programming language to get it right at least
for the simple cases.
