#408 Add dosctring wrapping to Format code

[pachiburke]

Python Format Code could grow line wrapping support for docstring wo, when moving a function around, to a different nesting level, the docstring gets reformatted respecting the line length limit and it's word wrapped (ala gq in GVIM).

Also wrapping multi-line normal comments same way would be more than useful, by multi-line comments I mean of course:

# Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. In eu
# nunc urna. Sed massa ipsum, hendrerit vel varius vitae, iaculis
# vel eros. Maecenas vel ligula ut erat sagittis vestibulum vel ac
# metus. Vestibulum dapibus augue ut lectus tincidunt sollicitudin.
#
# Phasellus tincidunt quam et neque consectetur ut tristique lectus
# eleifend. Nam condimentum odio quis orci pretium malesuada. Duis
# augue odio, interdum sit amet tincidunt in, blandit eu tortor.

I suppose Eclipse could implement this, but as we know, they have a long feud about wrapping and that is not going to happen for a while.

Thus I also think PyDev should help at least Python developers, and lead the way for others too at the same time!

I also note, that it is extremely painful to *edit* the multi-line comments / docstrings currently. Especially when one adds or replaces words, which almost always leads to going through all subsequent lines and fixing the wrapping by hand. Ouch.

Note that you can already use Ctrl+2+w to make the wrapping correct in comments (although that's not currently applied automatically in the code formatting)

I must wonder why is this not found under menu "Source"? Thats where I have been looking for it for no avail for a long time.

I'm glad that this feature is here, now that I found it... I'm embarrassed to say I have been doing this work by hand for a long time with PyDev.

Great to know that the feature is already done, but I would also love having it listed under the "Source" menu, as of now it is, IMHO, almost undiscoverable.

[Fabio Zadrozny]

Added it to the source menu for 1.5.4

Thanks a lot, Fabio.
