Functions
------------

.. function:: wordwrap(text, width, dc, breakLongWords=True, margin=0)

   Returns a copy of text with newline characters inserted where long
   lines should be broken such that they will fit within the given
   width, with the given margin left and right, on the given `wx.DC`
   using its current font settings.  By default words that are wider
   than the margin-adjusted width will be broken at the nearest
   character boundary, but this can be disabled by passing ``False``
   for the ``breakLongWords`` parameter.
