I'll happily chip in my word-wrap code, if you want it as a starting point for pygame. It's not beautiful, but it does have a very nice property:
orig_string[x] -> "".join(wrapped_string)[x] They're not always equal, because it converts some spaces to a zero-width character for alignment purposes. (The char was originally \x00, hence strip_to_null, but that caused issues elsewhere, presumably with C strings.) http://code.google.com/p/endgame-singularity/source/browse/trunk/code/graphics/text.py?r=892 -FM On 9/17/08, pymike <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yeah pygame.font needs support for \n. :P > > On Wed, Sep 17, 2008 at 2:31 PM, Charlie Nolan > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > >> Hmm, I've written this too.
