wiki:EmailProcessorMacro

Wrap text blocks to specified width

Notice: This plugin is unmaintained and available for adoption.

Description

This plugin is a wiki processor to wrap text to a specified number of columns, 72 by default. This is especially useful for pasting emails and getting blocks of text that don't scroll horizontally.

In the following example, the text is constrained to within a 72-character wide text block:

example of macro usage

The email processor is invoked by wrapping the #!email-processor around the body content of the email in your wiki page:

 {{{#!email
 <email stuff here>
 }}}

To wrap to a specified length, the line immediately following the invocation should contain cols: followed by the number of columns at wich we wrap. For example:

 {{{#!email
 cols: 40
 <email stuff here>
 }}}

It is important that the cols: starts at the beginning of the line and that only a number follows it.

The EmailProcessorMacro is installed on Trac-Hacks, so you can test it out. Please do so only by previewing, not by submitting tickets.
