New submission from Tyler Romeo <tylerro...@gmail.com>: Originally from http://bugs.python.org/issue12485 but separated.
The textwrap modules uses len to determine the length of text, but in many (if not most) fonts, the width of a character differs depending on the letter, so it would be useful to have an option to pass a custom function that returns the width of a given string of text. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: textwrap.py-widthfunction-2011-07-04_22-57-49_r71219+.diff keywords: patch messages: 139828 nosy: parent5446 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: textwrap.wrap: add control for fonts with different character widths type: feature request versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file22574/textwrap.py-widthfunction-2011-07-04_22-57-49_r71219+.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12499> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
