Does anyone know of way to get text automaticlly wrap when it is PRINTed on the screen and goes of the right hand side of the screen?

Or do i need to resort to writing my own print function that takes care of this?

Definitly easier. Write your own WordWrap function (hehehe DG)

Depending on your needs, perhaps something like this:
