Hanging-indent list labels: column fit boundary · case 05
Words that end exactly at the right edge are wrapped.
Case contract
Input [label, words, width, hang]. The label starts at column 0; first-line text starts at column hang when label+1 space fits, else right after label plus one space. Continuation lines are indented by hang. Greedy fill with unit spaces measuring absolute columns. Return padded lines.
Why this case matters
Line breaking decides where paragraphs wrap on screen and in print; a wrong decision point shifts every following line.
One recorded failure
