Feature request: include an option to caption a plot with the the BQL query (i.e. --show-caption). For instance

.heatmap 'ESTIMATE PAIRWISE DEPENDENCE PROBABILITY FROM malawi' --last-sort

would have ESTIMATE PAIRWISE DEPENDENCE PROBABILITY FROM malawi as a caption. Long captions would have ellipses after 100 chars.

Are ellipses preferable to text wrapping?

fsaad commented 9 years ago

Text wrapping is also a good choice. By the way, by feature request I meant @axch requesting from me, rather than me requesting from you :)

BaxterEaves commented 9 years ago

no worries. I am happy to do things from time to time :)

You may find the textwrap module helpful.
