Support for filling long strings? #319

Closed timvisher closed 6 years ago

I think the right way to do this would be 

charnock = "stah oesuth aoesut haoesut haoesut haoseut haoseut haosenut haosentu haosentu haoesutnh satoeuh santoeuh sanoetuh saenotuh aeostnuh."
charnock = "stah oesuth aoesut haoesut haoesut haoseut haoseut haosenut" +
           "haosentu haosentu haoesutnh satoeuh santoeuh sanoetuh saenotuh" +
           "aeostnuh."

M-x auto-fill-mode ?

@syohex filling produces:

charnock = "stah oesuth aoesut haoesut haoesut haoseut haoseut
haosenut haosentu haosentu haoesutnh satoeuh santoeuh sanoetuh
saenotuh aeostnuh."

charnock = "stah oesuth aoesut haoesut haoesut haoseut haoseut haosenut haosentu haosentu haoesutnh satoeuh santoeuh sanoetuh saenotuh aeostnuh."

is different from

charnock = "stah oesuth aoesut haoesut haoesut haoseut haoseut haosenut
            haosentu haosentu haoesutnh satoeuh santoeuh sanoetuh saenotuh
            aeostnuh."

Your expected result has more spaces than original string.

@syohex Let's move the goalpost, then, shall we? :)

Hmm, it is necessary to parse string and its content and it is difficult to implement in Emacs Lisp.

Is there such converter or beautifier in JavaScript or AltJS ?

timvisher commented 8 years ago

Not that i'm aware of. But i wouldn't count myself as particularly knowledgeable about such things.

I don't use coffee-mode anymore. :(
