------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ----------------------------
Fixed in CVS 28.Dec.

For the record, the only documented wrap chars are currently ' ', 'n', and 'r'.

As an added observation, the MS implementation will not draw 't' in a provided 
string but will still break on that non-drawn char.

Summary:  Graphics.DrawString doesn't break strings at dashes

Original Submission:  Graphics.DrawString only breaks lines at whitespace but 
doesn't break lines at dashes (-). The attached ZIP file contains a small 
project and compiled EXE that demonstrates this when you resize the form. 
There's a PNG showing the .NET rendering and two PNGs showing dotGNU's 
rendering on X Window with Xft.

The problem is missing support for breaking at dashes in the TextLayoutManager 
class in System.Drawing/Graphics.cs... maybe we should add an array with 
characters that may break a line (e.g. ' ', 't', '-').
