Hi Vladimir,
Well, upon looking at your original email in my inbox, other of the reasons I did not replied immediately is that your email does not clearly state what the bug is exactly -- see my comments to the issue.
there is no reason whatsoever to justify how you spend your time. The program_options library is free software and I consider myself fortunate to be able to use this fine code. I have submitted an example program that produces the following output: | Supported options: | --help this is a sufficiently long text to requ | ire word-wrapping | --prefix arg (=/h/proj/tmp/dispatch) root path of the dispatch installation Personally, I like about program_options that it goes to great lengths to produce nicely formatted help texts for the user and I believe that the result could be even better if the message generated in the case above would be word-wrapped at white space rather than in the middle of a word. It's not a major problem, no doubt, but it would be nice to have that case improved. I would love to hack the code myself and to submit a patch, but unfortunately I cannot because I lack the time to do it. I'd find it to be awesome if it would turn out that you care so much about the library that you'll sit down in your spare time and do it. If you don't, however, I don't any right to complain and I won't. I wish you a merry Christmas, Peter
