How to force a soft line wrap?

[Alexander Gladysh]

Hi, all!

I'm writing a mode for my toy template language.

In the language there is a construct to embed a newline:

foo{\n}bar

When a template is rendered, it will be replaced with a newline, as follows:

foo

bar

I would like to imitate this in the editor and force a soft wrap after {\n}:

1 | foo{\n} 

  | bar

Is there a way to do this without hacking too deep in the ACE source code?

Best,
Alexander.

Hi
Unfortunately there is no easy way to do this. 

It may be possible to achieve the effect by modifying https://github.com/ajaxorg/ace/blob/edd676ba791885436bcad66fa739faa32bf7b3d9/lib/ace/edit_session.js#L1804, but it is likely to require non-trivial amount of work

Best,

Harutyun
