All Implemented Interfaces:

public class ResizingTextArea
extends javax.swing.JTextArea
JTextArea is extended to support being able to expand its width to avoid wrapping lines for small amounts of text. This class provides wrapping and orphan checking to provide a pleasing-to-the- eye aspect ratio (geared towards wide screen monitors) without leaving small snippets of text on the last line, unnecessarily.
