New submission from Devika Sondhi <devi...@iiitd.ac.in>:
textwrap.wrap does not seem to preserve tab character ('\t') in the text if it
is not separated from other characters by a space.
Example:
>>> textwrap.wrap("Here is\tone line of text that is going to be wrapped after
>>> 20 columns.",20)
['Here is one line of', 'text that is going', 'to be wrapped after', '20
columns.']
The tab is missing from the above output.
However, for text with \t separated by space, the behavior is as expected
(shown below).
>>> textwrap.wrap("Here is \t one line of text that is going to be wrapped
>>> after 20 columns.",20)
>>>
['Here is one', 'line of text that is', 'going to be wrapped', 'after
20 columns.']
