Description

Motivation There is no easy way to have indented line breaks.

Description I do not want to have to horizontally scroll when my code is too long and want to wrap it to the next line. However when I do this like https://github.com/PrismJS/prism/issues/1237 the line wraps over to the next line without any indents. I want to wrap the line over with indenting like in many code editors (like vs code press Alt + Z https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31025502/how-can-i-switch-word-wrap-on-and-off-in-visual-studio-code) .

Contributor guide

Examine how Prism handles line wrapping (e.g., CSS white space property) and implement indentation for wrapped lines, similar to editor word wrap with indent.
