[Zope] wrapping email at 72 characters ?

[Casey Duncan]

Try this code from my MSWordMunger product (which predates Python 2.0 btw=
):

from string import find, rfind, join

def wordWrap(text, width):
    remaining =3D text
    wrapped =3D []

    while len(remaining) > width:
        cut =3D width

        if remaining[cut] !=3D ' ':
            cut =3D rfind(remaining, ' ', 0, cut-1)
            if cut =3D=3D -1: cut =3D find(remaining, ' ', cut-1)
            if cut =3D=3D -1: cut =3D len(remaining)

        wrapped.append(remaining[:cut])
        remaining =3D remaining[cut+1:]

    if remaining:
        wrapped.append(remaining)

    return join(wrapped, '\n')

hth,

Casey
