## Usage
```js
var wrap = require('word-wrap');
wrap('Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.');
```
Results in:
```
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing
The width of the text before wrapping to a new line.
**Example:**
```js
wrap(str, {width: 60});
```
### options.indent
Type: `String`
Default: `` (two spaces)
The string to use at the beginning of each line.
**Example:**
```js
wrap(str, {indent: ' '});
```
### options.newline
Type: `String`
Default: `\n`
The string to use at the end of each line.
**Example:**
```js
wrap(str, {newline: '\n\n'});
```
### options.escape
Type: `function`
Default: `function(str){return str;}`
An escape function to run on each line after splitting them.
**Example:**
```js
var xmlescape = require('xml-escape');
wrap(str, {
escape: function(string){
return xmlescape(string);
}
});
```
### options.trim
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Trim trailing whitespace from the returned string. This option is included since `.trim()` would also strip the leading indentation from the first line.

```
### options.cut

Default: `false`
Break a word between any two letters when the word is longer than the specified width.
