Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Jonathan Wilkes (jancsika1) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: word wrap in pdwindow

Initial Comment: This patch changes the Pd window to make line breaks at word boundaries. This is more legible than the default text widget behavior, which is to break at character boundaries.

Message: I'm not quite sure what the purpose would be. I'm submi

tting this as an improvement over tk's default wrapping

, which splits atoms in the pdwindow. I suppose there's

the slight side effect of introducing more ambiguity b

etween word wrapping and the line breaks which represen

t the end of a message, but generally one scans for "pr

int" or whatever one specified as an argument to print,

followed by a colon. (Anyhow, the way to get rid of t

hat ambiguity altogether is to have two bgcolors that a

lternate each time something is posted to the pdwindow.

)

Message: this would make a good GUI plugin, it would be simple, something like:

.pdwindow.text configure -wrap word
