I will, when I can make it work.

My ST usage model is:
1) All my templates are in group files (none generated in code).
2) When I generate my output, I use a StringTemplateWriter, to write the
output into a file.

Despite setting stWriter.setLineWidth(16), _and_ adding wrap option to
my templates, I get no wrappin!

STWriter has a write(String str, String wrap) method, but StringTemplate
(which is my top level object for generating my output) only has a
write(StringTemplateWriter) method, with no wrapping/width option.

It's probably easy to add, and I'll look at it in time if no one beats
me to it. Just an overloaded method or two I hope...
