Hey guys. I should warn you, first off, that I'm relatively new to Python. Basically, what I'm trying to do is create a word-wrapping function with the added complication that it add a character at the beginning and end of each line, so that it encloses the text in a sort of 'box':
---------------- | Like this | ---------------- The word-wrapping function I'm working with is similar to the one given here: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/148061 def wrap(text, width): return reduce(lambda line, word, width=width: '%s%s%s' % (line, ' \n'[(len(line)-line.rfind('\n')-1 + len(word.split('\n',1)[0] ) >= width)], word), text.split(' ') ) Does anyone have any ideas on how it could be modified? Am I approaching it the right way? Thanks a bunch! Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
