| 25 | """ |
| 26 | Object for wrapping/filling text. The public interface consists of |
| 27 | the wrap() and fill() methods; the other methods are just there for |
| 28 | subclasses to override in order to tweak the default behaviour. |
| 29 | If you want to completely replace the main wrapping algorithm, |
| 30 | you'll probably have to override _wrap_chunks(). |
| 31 | |
Greg Ward | d34c959 | 2002-06-10 20:26:02 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 32 | Several instance attributes control various aspects of wrapping: |
| 33 | width (default: 70) |
| 34 | the maximum width of wrapped lines (unless break_long_words |
| 35 | is false) |
Greg Ward | 62080be | 2002-06-10 21:37:12 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 36 | initial_indent (default: "") |
| 37 | string that will be prepended to the first line of wrapped |
| 38 | output. Counts towards the line's width. |
| 39 | subsequent_indent (default: "") |
| 40 | string that will be prepended to all lines save the first |
| 41 | of wrapped output; also counts towards each line's width. |
Greg Ward | 62e4f3b | 2002-06-07 21:56:16 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 42 | expand_tabs (default: true) |
| 43 | Expand tabs in input text to spaces before further processing. |
| 44 | Each tab will become 1 .. 8 spaces, depending on its position in |
| 45 | its line. If false, each tab is treated as a single character. |
| 46 | replace_whitespace (default: true) |
| 47 | Replace all whitespace characters in the input text by spaces |
| 48 | after tab expansion. Note that if expand_tabs is false and |
| 49 | replace_whitespace is true, every tab will be converted to a |
| 50 | single space! |
| 51 | fix_sentence_endings (default: false) |
| 52 | Ensure that sentence-ending punctuation is always followed |
Andrew M. Kuchling | a2ecabe | 2003-02-14 01:14:15 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 53 | by two spaces. Off by default because the algorithm is |
Greg Ward | 62e4f3b | 2002-06-07 21:56:16 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 54 | (unavoidably) imperfect. |
| 55 | break_long_words (default: true) |
Greg Ward | d34c959 | 2002-06-10 20:26:02 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 56 | Break words longer than 'width'. If false, those words will not |
