Would you mind giving an example about `window-text-pixel-size' usage in
this situation?
AFAIU, `window-text-pixel-size' returns the size of the window, but
I fail to see how it is relevant here. Note that `text-width' in the
code above is not related to the width of the window, but is a maximum
number of allowed characters on a line.
Thank you!
