Log:
Fixed line wrapping for the "long help" content in LLDB commands.  Content is now dynamically wrapped for the column width of the current terminal.  Lines that begin with whitespace will be indented identically on subsequent lines to maintain formatting.

Existing commands supplying this type of help content have been reworked to take advantage of the changes.  In addition to formatting changes, content was changes for accuracy and clarity purposes.

-"\nGeneral information about entering breakpoint commands\n\
-------------------------------------------------------\n\
-\n\
-This command will cause you to be prompted to enter the command or set of\n\
-commands you wish to be executed when the specified breakpoint is hit. You\n\
-will be told to enter your command(s), and will see a '> 'prompt. Because\n\
-you can enter one or many commands to be executed when a breakpoint is hit,\n\
-you will continue to be prompted after each new-line that you enter, until you\n\
-enter the word 'DONE', which will cause the commands you have entered to be\n\
-stored with the breakpoint and executed when the breakpoint is hit.\n\
-\n\
-Syntax checking is not necessarily done when breakpoint commands are entered.\n\
-An improperly written breakpoint command will attempt to get executed when the\n\
-breakpoint gets hit, and usually silently fail.  If your breakpoint command does\n\
-not appear to be getting executed, go back and check your syntax.\n\
-\n\
-Special information about PYTHON breakpoint commands\n\
-----------------------------------------------------\n\
-\n\
-You may enter either one line of Python, multiple lines of Python (including\n\
-function definitions), or specify a Python function in a module that has already,\n\
-or will be imported.  If you enter a single line of Python, that will be passed\n\
-to the Python interpreter 'as is' when the breakpoint gets hit.  If you enter\n\
-function definitions, they will be passed to the Python interpreter as soon as\n\
-you finish entering the breakpoint command, and they can be called later (don't\n\
-forget to add calls to them, if you want them called when the breakpoint is\n\
-hit).  If you enter multiple lines of Python that are not function definitions,\n\
-they will be collected into a new, automatically generated Python function, and\n\
-a call to the newly generated function will be attached to the breakpoint.\n\
-\n\
-\n\
-This auto-generated function is passed in three arguments:\n\
-\n\
-    frame:  a lldb.SBFrame object for the frame which hit breakpoint.\n\
-    bp_loc: a lldb.SBBreakpointLocation object that represents the breakpoint\n\
-            location that was hit.\n\
-    dict:   the python session dictionary hit.\n\
-\n\
-When specifying a python function with the --python-function option, you need\n\
-to supply the function name prepended by the module name. So if you import a\n\
-module named 'myutils' that contains a 'breakpoint_callback' function, you would\n\
-specify the option as:\n\
-\n\
-    --python-function myutils.breakpoint_callback\n\
-\n\
-The function itself must have the following prototype:\n\
-\n\
-def breakpoint_callback(frame, bp_loc, dict):\n\
-  # Your code goes here\n\
-\n\
-The arguments are the same as the 3 auto generation function arguments listed\n\
-above. Note that the global variable 'lldb.frame' will NOT be setup when this\n\
-function is called, so be sure to use the 'frame' argument. The 'frame' argument\n\
-can get you to the thread (frame.GetThread()), the thread can get you to the\n\
-process (thread.GetProcess()), and the process can get you back to the target\n\
-(process.GetTarget()).\n\
-\n\
-Important Note: Because loose Python code gets collected into functions, if you\n\
-want to access global variables in the 'loose' code, you need to specify that\n\
-they are global, using the 'global' keyword.  Be sure to use correct Python\n\
-syntax, including indentation, when entering Python breakpoint commands.\n\
-\n\
-As a third option, you can pass the name of an already existing Python function\n\
-and that function will be attached to the breakpoint. It will get passed the\n\
-frame and bp_loc arguments mentioned above.\n\
-\n\
-Example Python one-line breakpoint command:\n\
-\n\
-(lldb) breakpoint command add -s python 1\n\
-Enter your Python command(s). Type 'DONE' to end.\n\
-> print \"Hit this breakpoint!\"\n\
-> DONE\n\
-\n\
-As a convenience, this also works for a short Python one-liner:\n\
-(lldb) breakpoint command add -s python 1 -o \"import time; print time.asctime()\"\n\

-    "'alias' allows the user to create a short-cut or abbreviation for long \n\
-    commands, multi-word commands, and commands that take particular options. \n\
-    Below are some simple examples of how one might use the 'alias' command: \n\
-    \n    'command alias sc script'            // Creates the abbreviation 'sc' for the 'script' \n\
-                                         // command. \n\
-    'command alias bp breakpoint'        // Creates the abbreviation 'bp' for the 'breakpoint' \n\
-                                         // command.  Since breakpoint commands are two-word \n\
-                                         // commands, the user will still need to enter the \n\
-                                         // second word after 'bp', e.g. 'bp enable' or \n\
-                                         // 'bp delete'. \n\
-    'command alias bpl breakpoint list'  // Creates the abbreviation 'bpl' for the \n\
-                                         // two-word command 'breakpoint list'. \n\
-    \nAn alias can include some options for the command, with the values either \n\
-    filled in at the time the alias is created, or specified as positional \n\
-    arguments, to be filled in when the alias is invoked.  The following example \n\
-    shows how to create aliases with options: \n\
-    \n\
-    'command alias bfl breakpoint set -f %1 -l %2' \n\
-    \nThis creates the abbreviation 'bfl' (for break-file-line), with the -f and -l \n\
-    options already part of the alias.  So if the user wants to set a breakpoint \n\
-    by file and line without explicitly having to use the -f and -l options, the \n\
-    user can now use 'bfl' instead.  The '%1' and '%2' are positional placeholders \n\
-    for the actual arguments that will be passed when the alias command is used. \n\
-    The number in the placeholder refers to the position/order the actual value \n\
-    occupies when the alias is used.  All the occurrences of '%1' in the alias \n\
-    will be replaced with the first argument, all the occurrences of '%2' in the \n\
-    alias will be replaced with the second argument, and so on.  This also allows \n\
-    actual arguments to be used multiple times within an alias (see 'process \n\
-    launch' example below).  \n\
-    Note: the positional arguments must substitute as whole words in the resultant\n\
-    command, so you can't at present do something like:\n\
-    \n\
-    command alias bcppfl breakpoint set -f %1.cpp -l %2\n\
-    \n\
-    to get the file extension \".cpp\" automatically appended.  For more complex\n\
-    aliasing, use the \"command regex\" command instead.\n\
-    \nSo in the 'bfl' case, the actual file value will be \n\
-    filled in with the first argument following 'bfl' and the actual line number \n\
-    value will be filled in with the second argument.  The user would use this \n\
-    alias as follows: \n\
-    \n    (lldb)  command alias bfl breakpoint set -f %1 -l %2 \n\
-    <... some time later ...> \n\
-    (lldb)  bfl my-file.c 137 \n\
-    \nThis would be the same as if the user had entered \n\
-    'breakpoint set -f my-file.c -l 137'. \n\
-    \nAnother example: \n\
-    \n    (lldb)  command alias pltty  process launch -s -o %1 -e %1 \n\
-    (lldb)  pltty /dev/tty0 \n\
-           // becomes 'process launch -s -o /dev/tty0 -e /dev/tty0' \n\
-    \nIf the user always wanted to pass the same value to a particular option, the \n\

+"'alias' allows the user to create a short-cut or abbreviation for long \
+commands, multi-word commands, and commands that take particular options.  \
+Below are some simple examples of how one might use the 'alias' command:" R"(
+
+(lldb) command alias sc script
+
+    Creates the abbreviation 'sc' for the 'script' command.
+
+(lldb) command alias bp breakpoint
+
+)" "    Creates the abbreviation 'bp' for the 'breakpoint' command.  Since \
+breakpoint commands are two-word commands, the user would still need to \
+enter the second word after 'bp', e.g. 'bp enable' or 'bp delete'." R"(
+
+(lldb) command alias bpl breakpoint list
+
+    Creates the abbreviation 'bpl' for the two-word command 'breakpoint list'.
+
+)" "An alias can include some options for the command, with the values either \
+filled in at the time the alias is created, or specified as positional \
+arguments, to be filled in when the alias is invoked.  The following example \
+shows how to create aliases with options:" R"(
+
+(lldb) command alias bfl breakpoint set -f %1 -l %2
+
+)" "    Creates the abbreviation 'bfl' (for break-file-line), with the -f and -l \
+options already part of the alias.  So if the user wants to set a breakpoint \
+by file and line without explicitly having to use the -f and -l options, the \
+user can now use 'bfl' instead.  The '%1' and '%2' are positional placeholders \
+for the actual arguments that will be passed when the alias command is used.  \
+The number in the placeholder refers to the position/order the actual value \
+occupies when the alias is used.  All the occurrences of '%1' in the alias \
+will be replaced with the first argument, all the occurrences of '%2' in the \
+alias will be replaced with the second argument, and so on.  This also allows \
+actual arguments to be used multiple times within an alias (see 'process \
+launch' example below)." R"(
+
+)" "Note: the positional arguments must substitute as whole words in the resultant \
+command, so you can't at present do something like this to append the file extension \
+\".cpp\":" R"(
+
+(lldb) command alias bcppfl breakpoint set -f %1.cpp -l %2
+
+)" "For more complex aliasing, use the \"command regex\" command instead.  In the \
+'bfl' case above, the actual file value will be filled in with the first argument \
+following 'bfl' and the actual line number value will be filled in with the second \
+argument.  The user would use this alias as follows:" R"(
+
+(lldb) command alias bfl breakpoint set -f %1 -l %2
+(lldb) bfl my-file.c 137
+
+This would be the same as if the user had entered 'breakpoint set -f my-file.c -l 137'.
+
+Another example:
+
+(lldb) command alias pltty process launch -s -o %1 -e %1
+(lldb) pltty /dev/tty0
+
+    Interpreted as 'process launch -s -o /dev/tty0 -e /dev/tty0'
+
+)" "If the user always wanted to pass the same value to a particular option, the \
+alias could be defined with that value directly in the alias as a constant, \
+rather than using a positional placeholder:" R"(
+
+(lldb) command alias bl3 breakpoint set -f %1 -l 3
+
+    Always sets a breakpoint on line 3 of whatever file is indicated.)"
