Question

Here is what I’m looking for.

I’d like to find a library or method that formats output text, such that it word wraps at
80 columns (or user configurable), and allows user defined indentation.

I know that I could create one, but I suspect that there is already a library available
that does this. I’ve googled around and I’ve found pages for iomanip — which gave me
ideas for creating my own.

I’ve done a cursory search through the boost libraries, but I didn’t really find anything that quite matched.

Here it is, search harder next time 😉
