+Table Text Wrapping Example
+
+This example demonstrates the line wrapping functionality in table cells:
+- Tables with long text that wraps across multiple lines
+- Automatic word wrapping within cell boundaries
+- Hyphenation support for long words
+- Multiple paragraphs per cell
+- Comparison of narrow vs. wide columns
+
+Shows how the Line-based text layout system handles text overflow in tables.

+
+```bash
+python 11_table_text_wrapping_demo.py
+```
+
+**Simple Version:** `11b_simple_table_wrapping.py` - Quick demonstration
+
+Demonstrates:
+- **Automatic line wrapping** - Text wraps across multiple lines within cells
+- **Word hyphenation** - Long words are intelligently hyphenated
+- **Narrow columns** - Aggressive wrapping for tight spaces
+- **Mixed content** - Both short and long text in the same table
+- **Technical documentation** - API reference style tables
+- **News layouts** - Article-style table content
+
+**Implementation:** Uses the Line class from `pyWebLayout.concrete.text` with:
+- Word-by-word fitting with intelligent spacing
+- Pyphen-based dictionary hyphenation
+- Brute-force splitting for edge cases
+- Proper baseline alignment and metrics
