From what you say, both problems are related to the tool you use. Are
there no other tools that can be used ?

The wrapping problem is unrelated to the tool, but to the console mode
focus of our installation files. Such a manually formatted text file is
simply unsuitable for a GUI installer.

But if the tool didn't wordwrap, all would be OK, no ?

It's not the tool, it doesn't touch the files. It's the GUI of the
installer application, which shows a plain window that happens to be
slightly too narrow relative to our chosen line length (depending on the
kind of characters on the line, as it uses a proportional font).

So it's the MacOS installer window that does the wrapping ?
being used to Inno Setup I automatically assumed the tool also does the
GUI...

That explains it. Thanks.

Michael.
