But none of these examples require reflowing text in the source code, right?
In markdown, if you want text to reflow, you just let it go past 80 columns,
or whatever the viewport width is. So this entire paragraph would have no
newlines in its source code.
fn main() {
print!("But none of this text reflows because ")
println!("it's less than the viewport width.")
}
