| """ |
| Object for wrapping/filling text. The public interface consists of |
| the wrap() and fill() methods; the other methods are just there for |
| subclasses to override in order to tweak the default behaviour. |
| If you want to completely replace the main wrapping algorithm, |
| you'll probably have to override _wrap_chunks(). |
| |
| Several instance attributes control various aspects of wrapping: |
| width (default: 70) |
| the maximum width of wrapped lines (unless break_long_words |
| is false) |
| initial_indent (default: "") |
| string that will be prepended to the first line of wrapped |
| output. Counts towards the line's width. |
| subsequent_indent (default: "") |
| string that will be prepended to all lines save the first |
| of wrapped output; also counts towards each line's width. |
| expand_tabs (default: true) |
| Expand tabs in input text to spaces before further processing. |
| Each tab will become 1 .. 8 spaces, depending on its position in |
| its line. If false, each tab is treated as a single character. |
| replace_whitespace (default: true) |
| Replace all whitespace characters in the input text by spaces |
| after tab expansion. Note that if expand_tabs is false and |
| replace_whitespace is true, every tab will be converted to a |
| single space! |
| fix_sentence_endings (default: false) |
| Ensure that sentence-ending punctuation is always followed |
| by two spaces. Off by default becaus the algorithm is |
| (unavoidably) imperfect. |
| break_long_words (default: true) |
| Break words longer than 'width'. If false, those words will not |
| be broken, and some lines might be longer than 'width'. |
