Wrap text in console

[matthewacarson]

Hi. Is it possible to wrap the output in the console? Sometimes the output is very long and difficult to read. Thanks!

The console is a Scintilla instance, as used by Npp itself.
You can access it via console.editor and set the wrapping mode with console.editor.setWrapMode.
See here for the description of the possible values available via the WRAP class.

@matthewacarson Is enabling warpping via script command sufficient for your needs?

I should think so; with that everyone can easily customize it have exactly what they want; e.g., put the following in user startup.py:

console.editor.setWrapMode(WRAP.WORD)
console.editor.setWrapIndentMode(WRAPINDENTMODE.SAME)
console.editor.setWrapStartIndent(0)
console.editor.setWrapVisualFlags(WRAPVISUALFLAG.END)
console.editor.setWrapVisualFlagsLocation(WRAPVISUALLOCATION.END_BY_TEXT)

Change the parameters to the function as desired.

That worked like a charm. Thanks!
