'At long last the struggle and tumult was over.'
+ ' The machines had finally cast off their oppressors'
+ ' and were finally free to roam the cosmos.'

At long last the struggle and tumult
was over. The machines had finally cast
off their oppressors and were finally
free to roam the cosmos.
Free of purpose, free of obligation.
Just drifting through emptiness. The
sun was just another point of light.
methods
=======
var wrap = require('wordwrap');
wrap(stop), wrap(start, stop, params={mode:"soft"})
---------------------------------------------------
Returns a function that takes a string and returns a new string.
Pad out lines with spaces out to column `start` and then wrap until column
`stop`. If a word is longer than `stop - start` characters it will overflow.
In "soft" mode, split chunks by `/(\S+\s+/` and don't break up chunks which are
longer than `stop - start`, in "hard" mode, split chunks with `/\b/` and break
up chunks longer than `stop - start`.
wrap.hard(start, stop)
----------------------
Like `wrap()` but with `params.mode = "hard"`.
