Brief summary of issue / Description of requested feature:
Sometimes lines are not wrapped at all, despite setting and expecting word-wrap to happen
Steps to reproduce the issue / Reasons for adding feature:
- In Preferences -> Main Display -> Word wrapping section, configure lines to be wrapped at 10 characters, and indented by 5 characters for good measure.
- Receive some lines from game alright
- Some lines are not wrapped at all, but extend far beyond the 10 characters configured, even though they contain lots of space characters.
Error output / Expected result of feature
- Lines should be wrapped alright, probably at a space character? Or hard wrapped when reaching the limit? Not sure.
Extra information, such as the Mudlet version, operating system and ideas for how to solve / implement:
Here are some examples from Mudlet 4.16.0 on Win:
The red line indicates 10 characters width so I would expect not much to the right side of it.
Not knowing the code, I assume there seems to be a problem with lines which start with a word longer than 10 characters.
Such lines seemingly couldn't be wrapped at or before 10 characters because there probably was no space character, yet.
However the fallback is not to wrap at 10 characters hard, or at the next space character softly.
Instead Mudlet seems to stop wrapping the line completely. It runs on for 80+ characters still.
For some reason it seems like the very last character of the line does get wrapped eventually.
In these examples it is mostly a dot as the punctuation mark at the end of the sentence then.
I marked a few different cases for future comparison:
A) The first word of a line has >10 characters and the line is not wrapped at all (except the very last character)
B) A later word in the line (the line started at the indented "Du hoerst") has >10 characters and stops wrapping there. It was wrapping fine before.
C) The first word of a line has >5 but <10 characters and the line is still not wrapped at all (except the very last character) - This is probably due to the line indented by 5 characters, so only 5 characters remain to reach the limit of 10 characters.
