+ The {list} argument is a list of lists with each three
+ numbers. These three numbers are [low, high, width]. "low"
+ and "high" can be the same, in which case this refers to one
+ character. Otherwise it is the range of characters from "low"
+ to "high" (inclusive). "width" is either 1 or 2, indicating
+ the character width in screen cells.
+ An error is given if the argument is invalid, also when a
+ range overlaps with another.
+ Only characters with value 0x100 and higher can be used.

+ To clear the overrides pass an empty list: >

Same as |setpos()| but uses the specified column number as the
character index instead of the byte index in the line.
