Text Wrap Tool
Hard-wrap paragraphs at any character width, keeping whole words intact.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does text wrapping do?
It inserts line breaks so no line exceeds your chosen width. Words are never split — a word longer than the width stays whole on its own line.
Why wrap text at 80 characters?
80 columns is the classic terminal and code-review width. Wrapping plain text at 60–80 characters keeps emails, READMEs and comments readable anywhere.
What is a hanging indent?
A hanging indent adds spaces at the start of continuation lines, which is useful for quoted replies, changelogs and formatted lists.
Does it respect existing paragraphs?
Yes. Blank-line-separated paragraphs are wrapped independently and the paragraph spacing is preserved.
