Enhanced `strwrap` #2

Open brodieG opened 7 years ago

brodieG commented 7 years ago

Specs:

Ansi aware
Can handle horizontal whitespace (tabs, carriage returns)
Can handle double width characters
Hyphenation would be cute but almost certainly won't be implemented

Will probably require a version of ansi_substr that can handle all of the above. R implementations of most of this already exist at diffobj:::strip_hz_control.

Is there hyphenation support in the hunspell package? EDIT: not in the R package it seems, but I think the library might have it: https://github.com/ropensci/hunspell/issues/20

brodieG commented 7 years ago

hyphenatr is a possibility, but GPL-3 unless someone can talk Hrbmstr into re-licensing.

gaborcsardi commented 7 years ago

We would not embed it, just call it, so GPL-3 is OK.

But also, this is not very important to have, especially because it brings in stringi as a dependency....
