Text rendered through GIFBUILDER can now span several lines if it exceeds a certain width. New properties breakWidth and breakSpace make this possible.

Example:

…
10 = IMAGE
10 {
   file = GIFBUILDER
   file {
      XY = [20.w]+5,[20.lineHeight]*0.3+[20.h]
      transparentBackground = 1
      # Render regular text
      20 = TEXT
      20 {
         text = This is a long text that will hopefully break automatically...
         breakWidth = 250
         breakSpace = 1.0
         offset = 0,[20.lineHeight]
         niceText = 0
      }
   }
}
…
