Currently, it seems I handle long text lines inside a LSP symbol by replacing each "\n" character with a continuation character for the "tree structure". However, if the line is too long compared to the window displaying it, it wraps in a weird way: no carriage returns are printed and the "tree" is broken by the wrapped line.

Could I:

  • break on the current window's width (only one line, add ellipsis at the end if necessary) ;
  • break on the current window's width and stop at the first newline found (thus breaking the full description) ;
  • break on the current window's width and on new lines, with a proper continuation character printed at each step (and print all lines).

To investigate. Good candidate: any TeX file with a figure and a long description.
