Module:Convert character width explained

-- This module converts support characters from half-width to full-width, and vice versa.-- See Halfwidth and fullwidth forms for an explanation of half- and full-width characters.

-- @todo FIXME: Needs more characters adding, needs support for diacritic marks.
