TextWrapper keepking line breaks?

[js]

Hi list,

Can I make TextWrapper keep line breaks in the text?

For example,

>>s = "spam\nham"
>>print wrap(s)

spam
ham

As far as I can tell, there seems no way to do this,
but before writing my own solution, I want to know whether
the solution already exists or not.

Thanks.

Don't know but you could write:

>>import textwrap
>>def wraplines(text) :

... return '\n'.join(textw rap.fill(line) for line in
text.split('\n' ))
...

>>s = "spam\nham"
>>print wraplines(s)

spam
ham
