Hi list,
Can I make TextWrapper keep line breaks in the text?
For example,
>>s = "spam\nham"
print wrap(s)
spam
ham
As far as I can tell, there seems no way to do this,
but before writing my own solution, I want to know whether
the solution already exists or not.
Thanks. 2  2121

Don't know but you could write:
>>import textwrap
def wraplines(text):
... return '\n'.join(textwrap.fill(line) for line in
text.split('\n'))
...
>>s = "spam\nham"
print wraplines(s)
spam
ham
