//! Word wrapping algorithms.
//!
//! After a text has been broken into words (or [`Fragment`]s), one
//! now has to decide how to break the fragments into lines. The
//! simplest algorithm for this is implemented by [`wrap_first_fit`]:
//! it uses no look-ahead and simply adds fragments to the line as
//! long as they fit. However, this can lead to poor line breaks if a
//! large fragment almost-but-not-quite fits on a line. When that
//! happens, the fragment is moved to the next line and it will leave
//! behind a large gap. A more advanced algorithm, implemented by
//! [`wrap_optimal_fit`], will take this into account. The optimal-fit
//! algorithm considers all possible line breaks and will attempt to
//! minimize the gaps left behind by overly short lines.
//!
//! While both algorithms run in linear time, the first-fit algorithm
//! is about 4 times faster than the optimal-fit algorithm.
