Text justification about epy

[wustho]

Hello there, thanks, mate.

That's good question! Actually I've been considering text justification for so long. And I kinda thought it can be easily implemented using amazing https://github.com/willmcgugan/rich library. But the difficult part is adjusting search feature with justified text, although it is still manageable, I currently don't think it's worth the effort. Because what rich currently do is forcing the justification by stretching the space irregularly like this:

Lorem   ipsum   dolor   sit   amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Aenean venenatis a lectus in suscipit. Proin non felis pulvinar,
tristique  sapien  id,  viverra  ipsum.  Donec  nec dictum nisl,
id faucibus nulla.

What I actually want is text justification like this (look at the space and hyphen), like kindle does:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing el-
it. Aenean venenatis a lectus in suscipit. Proin nonse
felis pulvinar, tristique sapien id, viverra ipsum. D-
onec nec dictum nisl, id faucibus nulla.

With current rich library justification by stretching the spaces will create irregularity/inconsistency which will tire the reader's eyes for long reads. So, I don't think this will be implemented in short time, sorry. But, like you, I also would love this text justification.
